If you have never held a regular driver license in any
state, OR, your license expired more than 24 months ago, 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.
If you are under 21 years old 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.
