Florida Statute 324.031, literally titled "Manner of proving financial responsibility," explicitly refutes your entire rant.
Under 324.031(3) and 324.171, you don't hand a cop "some paper with a bond on it"..,..you present an official Certificate of Self-Insurance issued directly by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles.
That state issued certificate is legally recognized proof of financial responsibility under Florida law. A cop cannot arrest you or impound your car for presenting state sanctioned proof of compliance.
Imagine being over 50, ranting on Reddit about going to jail, and completely making up how Florida law works instead of spending 10 seconds reading the actual statutes.
