Habitual Traffic Offender Designation
Three Strikes Within Five Years
If you get three driving while license suspended convictions within a five year period the Florida Department Of Highway Safety And Motor Vehicles (DHSMV) will classify you as a habitual traffic offender and, consequently, will revoke your driving privilege for five years. So basically three strikes in five years and you sit the bench for five years in the driving game. You can not even apply for a hearing for a hardship license for one year and just because you apply for a hardship license after one year does not mean DHSMV is going to give it to you. So no driving for at least one year and then maybe DHSMV will allow you to drive for the next four years for business purposes only or employment purposes only.
Business Purposes Only License
A driving privilege restricted to “business purposes only” means a driving privilege that is limited to any driving necessary to maintain livelihood, including driving to and from work, necessary on-the-job driving, driving for educational purposes, and driving for church and for medical purposes. A driving privilege restricted to “employment purposes only” means a driving privilege that is limited to driving to and from work and any necessary on-the-job driving required by an employer or occupation.
Employment Purposes Only License
A driving privilege restricted to “employment purposes only” means a driving privilege that is limited to driving to and from work and any necessary on-the-job driving required by an employer or occupation.
