Absolutely not. A speeding ticket is a civil infraction and in Florida would not violate your probation.

Unfortunately, in Georgia, a speeding IS a criminal matter, a misdemeanor, and can lead to up to 12 months in jail. Therefore, it can cause a huge problem with your probation, since probation sentences in Georgia require that you do not "violate ANY law" regardless whether it is a felony or misdemeanor.
That said, unless this was a "serious" speeding ticket ( more than 20 mph over the limit, or over 100 miles per hour) it will probably not cause a violation. Jeremiah Kent Jarmin

I concur with Mr. Hamilton's assessment, In GA, a speeding ticket is a criminal violation, however, its nature is probably not severe enough to trigger a probation violation unless it is egregious such as reckless driving or excessively over the limit.
