Traditionally, a U.S. Postal Service (USPS) postmark has shown the date when mail was deposited in a mailbox or submitted at the post office counter. However, USPS recently updated its published guidance on what a postmark date represents.

Today, the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) announced that, beginning Friday, February 6th, all driver license knowledge and skills examinations will be administered exclusively in English. This change applies to all driver license classifications, including exams administered orally.

You can skip the wait and renew your vehicle registration at a self-service kiosk – including after hours and on the weekend – at 8 Publix locations!

Important Note: As of August 1, 2025, individuals who are under 18 years old and have never held a driver license from any other state, country or jurisdiction must complete a 6-hour DETS course before applying for a license in Florida.
