This location at the corner of John Young and West Colonial Drive has the best display of brand new…read moreexpensive top-of-the-line all decked out automobiles. They get a fleet of about 200 per year it seems. The bigger and less fuel-efficient the better. Where does this money come from? The answer, as always in big business is: volume, volume, volume! This place is like a Toys R Us for the hyper-macho and self loathing uniformed elite. We the taxpayers get to at least view their elaborate Fleet of toys gadgets and vehicles for no extra charge. Or you can buy one when they retire the vehicles at auction time. Stop by your local Starbucks and thank one of them as they sit in the air conditioning and enjoy their free coffee. Or wait for one of the next two or three times you get rear ended for one of them to show up. If you see one of them actually doing preventative, and not reactionary, police work on the side of the road, it's like a shooting star make a wish! Five stars for reliability and attention to detail in their voracious consumption of public funds.

She kept repeating she is trying to help me. She showed up for work, being paid by taxpayers, is she not expected to help and not " just try". It is unfortunate that these people don't get the simple concept that they have a job kindness of taxpayers. She is an utter embarrassment to the entire state of Florida. Why should her conduct be acceptable, more so when she dares me to file a complaint.

Im a tenant at an apartment, and they lied about the law saying I needed the landlord in order to…read morehave someone removed from the place im renting. I didn't argue and left the place im renting and slept somewhere else til the other person left. I happen to know that in the state of florida a tenant can have someone trespassed if they don't want them there. Im giving two stars because they got the me quickly, and acted friendly.

Pulled me over for going 3mph over the speed limit, three times for my window tint, once because my…read more"tail lights are out" (they weren't, I checked when I got home, requested body cam footage, from the officers pov my tail lights appeared lit. I took it to court and got the ticket dismissed. They also stopped my black friend just for walking down the street! Granted it was late at night, but that's not a legal reason to stop someone at all! If you're going to constantly harass anyone who doesn't look like they "fit in" to Maitland, at least follow your own rules and don't do 60 in a 45 (I see them speed through Maitland Blvd and 1792 regularly.) These officers will harass anyone who looks like they don't fit in to maitland, and then proceed to act completely above the law. When I lived in the 400 North apartments I regularly saw them from my porch camping in the shadows watching stop signs, just waiting for people to slip up. They genuinely have nothing better to do with their time. Overfunded department with a huge incentive for collecting revenue through tickets. Go fight some real crime . If your car is over 15 years old and has any sorts of dents or cosmetic damage, or just doesn't look the best, expect an officer to tailgate you through the entire town, and probably pull you over for some bs. Most of these officers have nothing better to do with their time than harass people doing nothing wrong. Despite all this, shoutout to Officer Andrews. I see this guy at the 7/11 on and 17/92 and Sybelia grabbing snacks a lot. He's always nice, genuinely a good guy. He even helped me with my car on new year's eve at 2am (i guess technically new year's day). He saw me and offered to help. Had a casual conversation about our nights and how he was getting a lot of calls for gunshots (they were just fireworks it was new year's eve). He didn't ask me any questions, like where I'd been or where I was coming from. He didn't try to figure out if I was intoxicated or if I was doing something wrong. ( I dont drink and was completely sober). He didn't even mention my tint is too dark or anything of the sorts. He simply wanted to give me a hand to help. Officer Andrews you are the only reason i'm even giving this review a single star. The community needs more people like him and less revenue chasing, harassing, fishing jerks. Even though most of the instances in which i've been pulled over by mpd were for stupid reasons, especially the tail light one considering my tailights weren't out, almost every officer was nice, or at least pretending to be. They still will shine their flashlights all over the inside of your car and fish for whatever they can, but most of them are decently nice. Not all cops are bad but as I said before this department has a problem with harassment and is way overfunded and revenue incentivized.

A police force full of Barney Fifes. Our car was totaled. We bought a new car on 8/24/2026 and the…read moredealership gave us a temporary plate. The temp plate expired on 9/22/2026. Even way before that we kept checking with the DMV portal, as it is impossible to talk with anyone at the state level. I did take to someone on the phone at a local DMV office, but was told "We don't handle that here, you need to talk to Tallahassee. There is no waiting cue with the state number. You get through or you don't. All I wanted to know is "WHERE IS MY PLATE? All of this was after the dealership sent the paperwork to Tallahassee for registration. The dealership said "Don't worry about the old plate, Florida will send a new one". We waited, and waiter, and waited constantly checking the mail. I called the dealership this past Friday and said I need a new temporary plate overnighted as the old one is expired waiting for the permanent one. I got stopped by one of your people on Orange Ave. this morning on my way to the doctor's office. After about 20 minutes, he comes back with a $114 ticket, saying I was driving on an expired plate with no registration. I SHOWED HIM the state has the information, and then he showed me the plate number that was assigned to my new car. I said, "That's my old plate number". The dealership marked that our old plate would be transferred to the new car, but that's NOT WHAT THEY TOLD ME! I congratulated Barney on being the first "officer" to EVER stop me in the State of Florida after moving here 25 years ago. NOW I have to go fix this situation, which will take an entire day at two offices to get this nullified.
