You'll be surprised at how simple it can be to meet all of your Florida learners permit requirements!
Florida Driver Education Traffic Safety (DETS) Course
The first step toward earning your Florida learner's permit is completing a state-approved Driver Education Traffic Safety (DETS) course. This six-hour online program is designed specifically for first-time teen drivers between the ages of 15 and 17, and it meets the state's driver education requirement.
DETS covers a variety of essential traffic safety topics, including:
- The effects of drugs and alcohol on driving
- Florida traffic laws and road rules
- Safe driving habits, attitudes and responsibilities
- Defensive driving techniques and crash prevention
By starting DETS at age 14 1/2, you'll be ready to take the permit exam as soon as you turn 15, getting you one step closer to hitting the road.
