This approved State of Florida DHSMV course is for individuals who had their license suspended and need to enroll in a course to reinstate their driver's license or for individuals listed as a habitual traffic offender (HTO) by the State of Florida. This course can also be court ordered by a judge. Enrollment in an ADI course is required for reinstatement of driver's license per S. 322.291, F.S.

About The Course:
The 12 Hour ADI (Advanced Driver Improvement) course will take approximately 12 hours of your time to complete. You will not be able to complete more than six hours each day, which is a requirement that is set by the State of Florida. Within the course you will receive multiple 10 minute break periods to give you time to absorb the content and step away from your computer, mobile device or tablet. You will be able to stop and resume where you left off whenever you like, and can switch between your phone, tablet or desktop computer as often as you want.

The course itself consists of text, videos, breaks, and scenario questions on subjects related to why you are taking this course. These scenario questions are provided during the first half, and during the second half of the course. During the course you will be asked to answer the scenario questions that will require a minimum of 50 words. Some examples of the types of questions you might see within the course are based on driving situations, habits, and behaviors. After the first half of the course is submitted, you must take a required 24 hour break mandated by the State of Florida before continuing. After you resume the course, you will then be able to complete the course and start the process of getting your license back! This 24 hour break is not included in the 12 hour course time. Therefore the fastest the course can be completed is 36 hours. The 24 hour break between each half is required by the Florida DHSMV and cannot be reduced or eliminated.

Once you complete the course and pass the scenario questions, we automatically process your certificate of completion to the State of Florida DHSMV and provide you with a free copy via email and will also be available for download within your account. You will then receive notice from the court providing you with information on how to get your license reinstated. If this was a court order you will need to turn in the certificate to the courthouse prior to the court due date.

Have Your License Reinstated:
With each Florida 12 Hour ADI (Advanced Driver Improvement) registration you will receive a Free Enrollment Verification Letter immediately via e-mail which will allow you to apply for a hardship license. A hardship license is a restricted license which is issued by the state, in accordance with statutes or by order of the court, after a driver's license has been suspended. When you receive your Enrollment Verification, you will need to submit it to the Florida Bureau of Administrative Review Office nearest to you. Once approved by the Florida Bureau of Administrative you will have your hardship license.
