1. “[T]he Florida Supreme Court recently opined that once the state establishes that a traffic stop was legally authorized, then any legitimate doubt whether the state has met its burden that the stop was not pretextual should be resolved in favor of the state. State v. Daniel, 665 So.2d 1040 (Fla.1995). In this instance, the state presented unrefuted testimony indicating [the defendant] made a right hand turn without signalling. [The defendant's] action was a violation of section 316.155, Florida Statutes (1993). Consistent with Daniel , [the defendant's] action gave the officer the right to initiate a traffic stop.”
