ERIC C. NORSTROM, APPELLANT,
v.
STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE
PER CURIAM.
We reconsider this appeal in accordance with the supreme court’s opinion in State v. Norstrom, 613 So. 2d 437 (Fla.1993). In doing so, we have reviewed all issues not resolved by our opinion in Norstrom v. State, 587 So. 2d 1148 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991).
We find error only as to one sentencing issue. Appellant should not have been convicted of both reckless driving and vehicular homicide. Cf. Carawan v. State, 515 So. 2d 161 (Fla.1987), superseded in part by the 1988 amendment to section 775.021(4) of the Florida Statutes; State v. Barritt, 531 So. 2d 338 (Fla.1988).
As to all other issues, we affirm. We remand for amendment of the judgment and sentence in accordance with this opinion.

Hause v. State, 643 So. 2d 679 (Fla. 4th DCA 1994)…posed. Appellant does not agree that he affirmatively sought the sentence. Furthermore, he correctly points out that even if he had agreed to the sentence, his acquiescence does not preclude him from appealing an illegal sentence. See Reed v. State, 616 So. 2d 592 (Fla. 4th DCA 1998); Purvis v. State, 587 So. 2d 638 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991). Appellant maintains that the sentence rendered constitutes an illegal sentence because the trial court departed from the presumptive sentencing guidelines without providing w…

Collins v. State, 697 So. 2d 1305 (Fla. 4th DCA 1997)…e. Moreover, the principle of estoppel cited in Taylor has limitations. Even with a [*1308] defendant’s assent, the court is without jurisdiction to impose a sentence in excess of the statutory maximum. See Cheney, 640 So. 2d at 105; Reed v. State, 616 So. 2d 592, 593 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993). Nevertheless, the fact that a court is without jurisdiction to impose a sentence in excess of the statutory maximum does not mean that the court is without jurisdiction to find a violation that occurred while the defendant…

Cayson v. State, 638 So. 2d 1061 (Fla. 4th DCA 1994)…e, 600 So. 2d 11 (Fla. 4th DCA 1992); Salas v. State, 589 So. 2d 343 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991). This court has recognized a sentence in excess of the maximum term allowed by law, will not be enforced notwithstanding a plea stipulation. See Reed v. State, 616 So. 2d 592 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993); Purvis v. Lindsey ex rel. State, 587 So. 2d 638 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991). The state notes, and seeks relief from, a previously recognized anomaly in the statutory sentencing scheme that permits prison sentence to a-longer term of ye…
