A hardship license is a special type of driver’s license that allows people who have lost their license due to certain circumstances, such as a DUI or excessive traffic violations, to drive to and from work, school, or other essential activities. In Florida, hardship licenses are issued by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV).
Hardship licenses can be a lifeline for people who need to drive for work or other essential activities but have lost their license due to a DUI or other traffic violations. They can also help people rebuild their driving records and eventually get their full licenses back.
