If you have
never held a regular driver license in any state, or, you've had
a license that expired beyond 2 years, you must
complete a Traffic Law and Substance Abuse Education course
before applying for a temporary driving permit (restricted
driver license) in the state of Florida. The driver education
courses offered by some county school boards may substitute for
this requirement.
Another reason why you may
have to take this course is: If you are
under 21 years of age and receive a notice of suspension for
driving with a BAL of .02 to .05, you must complete a Traffic
Law and Substance Abuse Education course in order to reinstate
your driver license on a hardship basis.
This
course trains the first-time driver's license applicant
regarding the dangers of alcohol and drug abuse when operating a
motor vehicle.
Enacted by
law in 1989, the Florida Legislature passed F.S. 322.095. This
Statute required all first-time applicants for a Florida Drivers
License to attend a substance abuse and traffic safety course.
Individuals who have attended a Florida Department of Education
approved drivers license education course or who have a valid
license in another are not required to complete the course.
This
4-Hour curriculum focuses on traffic safety, Florida laws and
substance abuse information. The purpose of this course is to
provide drivers with the information necessary to avoid injury
or death and to prevent the long term affects resulting from DUI
arrest.
