The Florida Highway Patrol said this in a statement:

"It has come to the Department’s attention that this requirement may violate the Geneva Convention on Road Traffic (1949), an international treaty to which the United States is a signatory. Treaties to which the United States is a party preempt state laws in conflict with them."

Obviously the lawyers and politicians will have a few things to say. But requiring an IDP for North Americans to travel to another part of North America is apparently unprecedented.
