Licensing is not a formality. It is how Florida checks instructors, training cars and course content. If a school is not licensed, its lessons may not count toward a license or an insurance discount.

Verify before you pay

In Florida, driving schools are licensed through the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV).

  1. Search Florida’s official driving school list or lookup for the school’s name.
  2. Match the name, address and any license number with what the school gives you.
  3. Ask the school for its license number. A licensed school will tell you right away.

  • Basic Driver Improvement (BDI): a 4-hour course used to avoid points for an eligible non-criminal moving violation. (source)

Rules change, so confirm the details with the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) before you enroll.

Before you sign up, ask these
  • What is your state license number, and does it match the state list?
  • Are all of your instructors licensed or certified?
  • What exactly is included: classroom hours, behind-the-wheel hours, road test help?
  • What is the total price and the refund policy, in writing?
  • Will I get a certificate of completion, and can my insurer verify it?

Walk away if a school will not give you a license number, or offers a certificate without the full training.
