Leon Traffic School
Leon County Driving School
If you're a resident of Tallahassee, 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.
Florida law allows
you 30 days from the date of the citation to elect traffic school. In order to elect traffic school you must sumbit this
Election Affidavit to the Leon County Clerk of Court. 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.
