Therefore, the claim that Florida will begin arresting commercial truck drivers who cannot speak English proficiently is not supported by the available evidence. Enforcement is administrative and regulatory rather than criminal.
In summary, while the executive order exists and mandates English proficiency with consequences for non-compliance, there is no verified information that Florida law enforcement is arresting truck drivers for this reason.
