Bail Bonds in Davie, Florida

Davie PD: Town of Davie

Davie is technically a "town" not a city, but with over 100,000 residents it operates a full-service police department (DPD). DPD handles all law enforcement within town limits. All arrests transport to the BSO Main Jail in Fort Lauderdale. Davie is home to Nova Southeastern University, Broward College, and the Bergeron Rodeo Grounds, all of which contribute to arrest patterns.

Nova Southeastern and College Arrests

Nova Southeastern University's campus on University Drive draws thousands of students. College-area arrests for drug possession, DUI, and alcohol violations are common. The Davie Road and University Drive corridors are heavily patrolled. Davie also hosts the annual Bergeron Rodeo, one of the last urban rodeos in the US, which brings DUI enforcement spikes during event weekends.

Town Government, City-Sized Police

Despite the "town" designation, Davie's police department has over 200 sworn officers, a marine patrol unit for the canal system, and specialized traffic enforcement. The DPD station at 1230 South Nob Hill Road processes initial arrest paperwork before transport to Fort Lauderdale. Arrest reports are available through DPD records at (954) 693-8200.

I-595 and Turnpike Interchange

The I-595/Florida Turnpike/I-75 interchange runs through Davie, creating one of the most complex highway junctions in Broward County. DUI checkpoints and traffic enforcement are concentrated along this corridor, particularly on Friday and Saturday nights. Highway arrests in Davie follow the same BSO booking process as all other Broward arrests.

Rodeo and Western Heritage

Davie maintains a distinctive western identity unusual for South Florida. The town has a horse-friendly ordinance allowing equestrian use on many streets, and the annual Bergeron Orange Blossom Festival and rodeo events at the Bergeron Rodeo Grounds bring crowds that lead to increased DUI and public intoxication enforcement by DPD along Davie Road and Orange Drive.
