Driver’s License
Need to get a Florida driver license or renew your license?
- A mandatory vision test is required for all drivers over the age of 80, regardless of citizenship or status, or renewal method.
- Customers who are 79 years of age and under will be issued an eight year license.
- Customers 80 and older will be issued a six year license.
Effective January 1, 2004, all drivers who are 80 years of age or older and who are in the process of renewing their driver license are required to pass a vision test. The test may be taken at our office at no additional charge.
Upon passing the vision test, you can complete the renewal process. However, if the test reveals a problem, you will be requested to have an eye specialist licensed in the state of Florida complete a Report of Eye Examination (HSMV 72010) and submit it to the department prior to renewing your license.
