What if I miss the Florida BDI deadline—can I still avoid points?

Short answer: If you don’t elect within 30 days or don’t complete/submit on time, you can lose the BDI option and points may be assessed. Outcomes depend on county rules and your case status. Check with your Clerk of Court immediately and review your record/BDI status using state tools.

What to do next

• Contact the issuing county clerk to ask about your options.
• Check your status via FLHSMV’s Traffic School Completion Check.
• Consider speaking with an attorney for legal advice about your case.
