Flagler County is one of Florida’s fastest-growing counties — a northeast Atlantic Coast community anchored by Palm Coast, the largest city in the county. With 165,000 residents and projected growth to 250,000+ by 2030, Flagler has transformed from a sparsely populated retirement community into a significant Jacksonville and Daytona Beach metro expansion zone. The 7th Judicial Circuit handles FR44/DUI cases from Flagler alongside Volusia, St. Johns, and Putnam counties.

Flagler County DUI Enforcement

Palm Coast / US-1 and I-95: Palm Coast’s primary commercial and entertainment concentration is along US-1 (Old Kings Road) and the Belle Terre Pkwy corridor. The City of Palm Coast has its own police department handling the urban commercial zone, while Flagler County Sheriff covers unincorporated areas. I-95 through Flagler County is a major northeast Florida corridor with enforcement on the SR-100/I-95 and US-1/I-95 interchange approaches.

Flagler Beach / A1A: Flagler Beach is the county’s barrier island community — a small beach town on A1A with a concentrated restaurant and bar district on State Road 100 at the beachfront. The A1A ocean-to-Intracoastal approach generates enforcement in this growing beach destination.

Bunnell: Bunnell is the county seat — a small historic city of 3,500 on US-1/SR-100 inland from Palm Coast. The Flagler County Courthouse processes all 7th Circuit DUI cases from Flagler County.
