OPINION

BARNES, Judge.

Case Summary

Elliott Cunningham appeals the trial court's judgment finding that he committed speeding, a Class C infraction. We reverse and remand.

Issue

The dispositive issue we address is whether the trial court properly denied Cunningham's request for a jury trial.

Facts

The facts most favorable to the trial court's decision are that on October 26, 2004, Lake County Deputy Sheriff Robert Bridgeman observed a vehicle driving in excess of the speed limit. Deputy Bridge-man stopped the vehicle, which was driven by Cunningham, and issued him a Uniform Traffic Ticket.
