Lake Traffic School
Lake County Driving School
If you're a
resident of Eustis, Lady Lake, Leesburg, Mount Dora, or Tavares, have a Florida Driver's license, or you received a traffic
ticket in Florida, then traffic school may be for you! By electing traffic school you may be able to avoid points on your
driver's license, and maintain your clean driving record.
Driving School Affidavit - This form is used by persons who wish to exercise the option of attending Driving School in lieu of having points assessed
to the driving record. Instructions for electing this option are found on the form. The form should be submitted with a fee
of $6.00 to the Lake County Clerk of Court within 30 days of the issue date of the traffic ticket. Failure to pay the
fine and attend traffic school will result in suspension of your driver’s license and the assessment of late fees.
There are many Driver School Course Providers in Florida. You can find a traffic school online
or you can enroll in a Florida DHSMV and Court approved online traffic school course with The Emilio School, Inc.
