Lawyers agree
Answered Double Jeopardy is a legal concept that applies to criminal prosecution.

Although it is a State agency DMV is not a Court, it is not subject to the rules of evidence and it is required to afford only minimal level of due process / constitutional protections to the public.

Thanks to MADD, DUI has effectively been branded “public enemy #1”. Every State engages in reciprocity and, in FL anyhow (I can’t speak to all the rest on this particular issue) DUI is a lifetime crime (it never goes away – well, after 75 years it can – and it is not subject t being sealed or expunged).

If you want to get a FL / DL (whether 1st time or to reinstate an old one) then you will have to comply with the terms and conditions as set by DMV and governed by the Administrative Code. These include a requirement that if you had a DUI anywhere at anytime then FL will need you to prove (yes, you will have to affirmatively prove) that you have complied with “ALL” court conditions in the State that prosecuted you, including but not limited to having completed a DUI class which is at least as extensive as the one which is required in FL.

If you ant more information go to the following website:http://www.dmvflorida.org/ – and if you cannot find answers then call them. Be polite and patient and they will be helpful (be short and terse and you will get nowhere).

Either way best of luck!


When it comes to the subject of drinking and driving, the best advice that you are ever going to hear is:  “Don’t do it!  Get a DD (Designated Driver), not a DUI”.

Be smart: Don’t drink and drive, but, if you do, just say “NO{thing}”, don’t blow (in FL your 2nd subsequent refusal is a crime) and call me stat at 305-381-8686, 305-798-2220, **ARRESTED, **305DUI, **MIAMIDUI, **MIAMILAW or **HABERLAW.
