Florida Motorcycle License Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Earn your learner's permit
  2. Pass the Florida Driver's License Exam
  3. Pass the Basic Rider Course
  4. Pay the state endorsement fees

Step 1 - Earn Your Learner's Permit

If you haven’t already done so, you’ll need to get on that learner permit grind. To get your learner license you’ll have to take the Florida Drug and Alcohol Course (psst! There’s an app for that ). You’ll want to make sure you have all of your needed documentation and that you've reported the completion of your Florida Drug and Alcohol course before heading to the DHSMV. You'll also need to take a hearing a vision test when you get there, so be sure to bring along any contacts or glasses if you wear them!

Step 2 - Pass the Florida Driver's License Exam

Next, you’ll take the written Florida state-authorized driving test. You can do this at the DHSMV or online by state-authorized providers. We know the word “test” sounds a little intimidating, but it’s only 50 multiple-choice questions so don’t sweat it. You can also find plenty of test prep materials and practice tests online to make sure you’re ready for any curveballs.

Step 3 - Pass the Basic Rider Course

Completing the Basic Rider Course (BRC) is one of the last steps to getting your motorcycle driver license. The BRC is a motorcycle driver training course required by your local Florida state-authorized driving office. During the Basic Rider Course, you’ll finally be able to get on your bike and practice riding and motorcycle safety -- the moment you’ve been waiting for! In the course, you’ll receive classroom instruction on general best practices, highway safety, and anything else you’ll need to know as a new motorcycle rider.

Step 4 - Pay the state endorsement fees

Upon successful completion of the steps above, all you have to do is stop in the DHSMV and pay the required endorsement fees. The fees include a $7 motorcycle endorsement fee and, if applicable, a $48 licensing fee.

Adding a Motorcycle Endorsement to Your Florida Driver License

  1. Have a valid Florida driver license
  2. Complete the Basic Rider Course
  3. Pay endorsement fees

If you already have your Florida driver license, the steps to adding a motorcycle endorsement to your license are pretty easy. Simply complete the same Basic Rider Course listed above to obtain motorcycle training and pay the applicable endorsement fees at your local Florida-authorized driving office and you’re on your way.

So there you have it, a step-by-step guide to obtaining the freedom of the open road (your motorcycle license in Florida). You can now ditch the mom mobile you’ve been stuck with and cruise around the sunshine state on your motorcycle instead. Happy driving!
