Best online course for first‑time ticket vs. repeat offenses

Frequency limits matter: Florida BDI has 12‑month/lifetime limits; Michigan BDIC is a one‑time benefit. Here’s how to pick.

Best online course for first‑time ticket vs. repeat offenses

Short answer: Florida BDI can be elected once every 12 months and a limited number of lifetime elections apply—check current FLHSMV guidance. Michigan BDIC is a one‑time program benefit when you’re eligible and pass within 60 days. If you have multiple recent tickets, confirm you still qualify before enrolling.

What to do next

Florida: Confirm frequency limits and elect within 30 days if eligible.
Michigan: If SOS‑eligible, pass BDIC within 60 days (one time).
If unsure, contact the clerk/SOS or seek legal advice about your case.
