You can sign up for this course if you have been ordered by a Florida judge or court to attend an 8-hour Intermediate Driver Improvement (IDI) course. Our course is approved in all 67 counties in Florida. Some counties (primarily Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, and Orange) allow a driver to elect to attend an IDI course if he or she has already elected to attend a 4-hour Basic Driver Improvement course within the past twelve months. If you are not sure whether this is the course you need, please review the paperwork you received from the court or contact the court for assistance. NOTE: This is not an Aggressive Driving or DWLSR course!

If your Florida driver license has been suspended or revoked, you are required to enroll in a 12-hour Advanced Driver Improvement course (ADI school) before your license can be reinstated or before you can apply for a hardship license. Completion of ADI school is also required for drivers who have been classified as Habitual Traffic Offenders (HTOs). This course can also be taken by a driver who has been ordered to attend ADI school by a Florida traffic court or judge.

1. Sign up for Florida online traffic school by clicking on the BDI course above.

You can elect to attend Florida traffic school unless the following applies to you:

1) you have already elected once before within the past 12 months;
2) you have elected five times previously;
3) you hold a Commercial Driver's License (CDL);
4) you received a Florida speeding ticket for driving more than 30 mph over the limit.

If you decide to attend Florida traffic school, you must notify the court.

2. Pay your ticket and remember that you are electing to attend Florida traffic school.

In most Florida counties, you must pay your fine to the clerk of the court within 30 days of your Florida ticket date. Each county has its own system for Florida traffic school election. Some counties will allow a person to notify them of their Florida traffic school election by phone prior to paying the ticket, some will allow a person to sign up for Florida traffic school up to 30 days after a Florida traffic ticket has been paid, and some have a required affidavit that needs to be filled out at the time the Florida ticket is paid. Please check the rules with the county in which you received the citation before you pay your Florida traffic ticket!

Most important of all, be sure to let the court know that you are electing to attend Florida traffic school, or they will just assume that you want to pay your ticket and receive the points!

3. Once you have completed the Florida online traffic school course, turn your certificate in to the clerk of the court.

In Miami-Dade County, you have 120 days from the date you pay your Florida ticket to complete your Florida traffic school course and turn in your completion certificate. In most other Florida counties you have 60-90 days from the date you pay your Florida traffic ticket. It's a good idea to make a copy of your certificate for your records before you send it to the clerk of the court.
