DUI Program Rules

The Florida Safety Council

Dear Student:

Welcome to the Florida Safety Council DUI Program (FSC). Our program, our Instructors and Evaluators are all certified by the State of Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV) to provide DUI courses for first offenders and multiple offenders who live in Seminole, Orange, Osceola or Brevard Counties. We are a reporting agency to the Courts, Probation Services and DHSMV, Drivers Licenses Bureau. We are required to report attendance or non-attendance. Our goal is to assist you completing the requirements of the DUI Program in order to retain your license or have your license reinstated by the Bureau of Driver License at the end of your revocation period. Please plan to attend since either Court of DHSMV may still require completion; DHSMV may require even if found not guilty, case dismissed; or Court may require even if license is reinstated by DHSMV prior to conviction. The following is a list of student's rules to help you with the process:

1. No alcohol, controlled substances or weapons will be allowed in any Florida Safety Council classroom location facility or on the grounds. Portable phones must be turned off and pagers placed on quiet mode.
2. No smoking in the building. Food or beverages in the classroom are not permitted. Vending machines are located in the student lounge areas for your convenience in some of our facilities. Ask your instructor for locations.
3. Your payment for the DUI Program course is only good for 90 days from the date of registration, according to DHSMV Administrative Rules. If you do not complete all of the DUI Program requirements within the 90 days, you will need to pay the enrollment fee again to re-enroll in the course. All fees payable to FSC are not refundable.
4. You MUST be on time for ALL appointments and classes. If you are late for any reason other than good cause such as documented hospitalization; documented incarceration; your own illness (documented by your physician with specific dates); documented death of an immediate family member; or a natural disaster; you will need to pay a reassignment fee and receive a new class schedule. Classes must be attended in order and will begin again with Session 1. Please refer to your class schedule or evaluation appointment paperwork for the fee.
5. Evaluation appointments begin on the hour and run on schedule. Each appointment lasts one hour. If you arrive late, the evaluation cannot be done and you will be required to pay a rescheduling fee. Please refer to your evaluation appointment paperwork for the fee schedule.
6. Classes begin on schedule, and you WILL NOT be allowed into the classroom if you arrive after the roll class has been taken. You will have to pay the amount listed on your registration form to reschedule your class.
7. If you come to your classes or evaluation after consuming alcohol, abusing prescription medication or another controlled substance, or if the odor of alcohol is present on your person, you will be asked to leave. If you are asked to leave, you will pay 100% of the enrollment fees to reenroll. FSC staff may perform periodic breath tests. You may also be referred for urinalysis at your expense if recommended by a FSC certified Evaluator or Instructor.
8. If you are disruptive in class or during the evaluation appointment, you will be asked to leave. If you are asked to leave, you will pay 100% of the enrollment fees to reenroll. Disruptive behavior includes in person or over the phone.
9. If you need to change your evaluation appointment or class schedule, you must contact this office, in person FIVE (5) business days prior to the date assigned or first class session, to sign new paperwork. You will be allowed 2 reassignments within 90 days at no fee. If less than 5 business days prior to reschedule date, a reassignment fee will be charged.
10. If you wish to transfer to another In-State or Out-State DUI Program, there is a $25.00 cash transfer fee and a DHSMV form to be signed to the new Program. You must contact the new Program, and the new Program must send us updates.
11. Children and guests ARE NOT allowed during classes, evaluation sessions or during the registration process. Children ARE NOT to be left without adult supervision in any part of the building.
12. Appropriate dress is required. Appropriate behavior is expected.
13. If you have registered for the wrong DUI program, by withholding information on previous DUI charges or DUI program attendance and a record check by FSC or DHSMV reveals the error, you will be required to pay for the correct DUI program. The fees already paid for the incorrect program are forfeited and will not transfer.
14. Completion certificates are not issued until the evaluation and classes are completed.
15. OTHER FEES:
    $15.00 Treatment Agency Transfer Fee, if you are referred and wish to change agencies.
    $ 5.00 Duplicate Certificate fee, if you need to replace your DUI Completion Certificate.

We hope this information will help you with successful completion of the DUI Program.
