Navigating Florida's New Teen Driver Law? We Make It Simple.

Getting a driver's permit is an exciting milestone, but the rules in Florida are changing. Starting July 1, 2025, a new state law requires all first-time drivers under 18 to complete a 6-hour Driver Education Traffic Safety (DETS) course to be eligible for a learner's permit.

There's a lot of confusion about this new requirement, so let's make it clear: for teens, this new 6-hour DETS course replaces the old 4-hour drug and alcohol (TLSAE) course. It is not an additional requirement. Our course is the single, state-approved solution your teen needs to meet the new law and get on the road safely.

And don't worry - your teen can do it all right here at DetsCourse.com. We're not only a fully approved provider of the new 6-hour DETS Course, but we're also authorized to offer the official Florida DMV learner's permit exam online for teens ages 15-17. That means once they finish the course, they can take the test from home - no lines, no stress, no trip to the DMV. Want to make sure you've got everything covered?
