18 and insert in lieu thereof: employer. For the purposes of
19 this subsection and not withstanding any other provisions of
20 law to the contrary, an injury to a law enforcement officer as
21 defined in Section 943.10(1), Florida Statutes, during the
22 officer's work period or while going to or coming from work in
23 an official law enforcement vehicle, shall be presumed to be
24 an injury arising out of and in the course of employment
25 unless the injury occurred during a distinct deviation for a
26 non-essential personal errand. If, however, the employer's
27 policy or the collective bargaining agreement that applies to
28 the officer permits such deviations for non-essential errands,
29 the injury shall be presumed to arise out of and in the course
30 of employment.
