When you receive a driving ticket in Florida, you have 30 days to take it to the Florida Clerk of Court and:
· Pay the driving ticket (paying means you are admitting you are guilty and the points will be added to your driving license) or
· Elect to attend a 4 Hour Defensive Driving (red light course), and no points will be added to your driving record, or
· Go to driving court to contest the ticket. If you decide to go to driving court and contest your driving ticket, the judge can adjudicate you guilty, and you will be required to attend 4 Hour Defensive Driving, the points will be added on your License, you will pay a fine and your insurance rates will be raised.
The department of highway safety and motor vehicles (dmv) is authorized to suspend the license of any person who has accumulated 12 or more points within 12 months. Points are calculated by the date you received the driving ticket.
· 12 points accumulated in 12 months will result in a 30 day suspension of your driving privilege.
· 18 points accumulated in 18 months (including points from a 12 point suspension) will result in a 3-month suspension of your driving privilege.
· 24 points accumulated in 36 months (including points from a 12 point and /or 18 point suspension) will result in a one-year suspension of your driving privilege.
You must complete a 4 hour defensive driving to avoid points on your drivers license, or if a judge ordered you to attend a red light course or a tcac course (Driving Collision Avoidance Course) as a result of a red light violation. The 4 hour defensive driving is also known as defensive driving course or basic driver improvement course.
