Trooper Steve on Patrol checks out busy intersection in Osceola County

OSCEOLA COUNTY, Fla. – Over the years, the community of Poinciana, located in South Osceola County, has become known for one thing: traffic.

Now, I can say this because I grew up here and I remember a time where planning your commute as part of your day simply to go to the grocery store was not a thing.

Now we can do an On Patrol in several areas of Poinciana but today, we are headed to Poinciana Boulevard and US-192.

Northbound lanes here see delays every single day and with limited travel lanes, driver behavior can become questionable. This morning, we will take a drive to this intersection and see just how bad it is.
