In Florida, first time drivers must complete a State approved alcohol and drug course before they can receive their learner’s permit, and this course can be taken with Driver Training Associates, Inc. The company has reliably helped millions of drivers learn how to drive safely and defensively over thirty years, so much so that it has become an integral part of the driver education industry.

Driver Training Associates’ system is geared to deliver extreme convenience and efficiency. Busy customers who may have no way of taking the usual course in a classroom may elect to use DTA’s convenient online interface, featuring learning material that can be taken at one’s own pace.

Florida teens who are at least 15 years old can take the company’s DHSMV-required alcohol and drug course online. This course makes use of simple language and incorporates animation and graphics as well. The required Florida driver license test may be taken on the Internet after one has passed the online drug and alcohol course. (The online road rules and road signs test may not be taken online if a student has taken the drug and alcohol course in a classroom per DHSMV rule.)

Driver Training Associates (DTA) offers an advanced driver improvement course to help drivers whose licenses have been suspended or revoked, or who have been categorized as habitual traffic offenders. The course will also fulfill the requirements of a Florida court or judge if a driver has been ordered to attend a 12-hour defensive driving program. Instead of spending 12 hours in a classroom on a Saturday, a driver can complete this State of Florida approved course completely on the Internet. There are no books, no classes with strangers, and no need to drive anywhere.

Upon enrolling in the course, the student will receive an enrollment letter that can be presented to the Bureau of Administrative Reviews if a hardship license is needed. Students can pay a small fee to have this letter expedited if they need their letter in a hurry. Presentation of the ADI course enrollment letter to the DHSMV is also needed for a driver to have his or her license reinstated after it has been suspended or revoked.

Although the Internet ADI course does require student interaction, there is no “group setting” or discussions. Short answer exercises are spread throughout the course, and video is used to make the user experience more engaging. The student is required to take a 24-hour break after completing the first 6 hours of the course. This online course is quickly becoming the most popular way for Florida drivers to attend an Advanced Driver Improvement program.
