The Florida DUI system is regulated and monitored by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. Completion of an approved DUI program is statutorily required of individuals violating Florida's DUI laws. Attendance may also be required for alcohol and controlled substance-related administrative suspensions.

The primary goal of the DUI system is to reduce the number of repeat offenders on Florida's roads. To assist in achieving this goal, DUI programs:

Provide educational services to DUI offenders.
   
Assist offenders in identifying substance abuse problems.
   
Refer those offenders identified with substance abuse problems to licensed, community-based treatment resources.
   
Provide court-related and DHSMV-required services for the DUI offenders.
   
Provide Special Supervision Services to multiple offenders with a 5 year, 10 year or permanent driver license revocation, who demonstrate trustworthiness to drive again on a restricted basis.
