You can check how many points are on your license in Florida by going to the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles website. Checking your license points in Florida will cost you $8 ($10 for a certified 7 year copy), plus a $6.25 tax in some situations, since you will need to pay for a copy of your driving record.

Florida uses driver’s license points to track violations. Accumulating 12 points in 12 months will result in a suspended license. Insurance companies also check customers’ driving records for points, since having a poor driving record is associated with an increased risk of filing a claim. Consequently, license points will result in higher premiums. For instance, one DUI conviction will raise your premium by an average of 56% in Florida.
