Legal Question in DUI Law in Florida

"LEVEL I ATTENDEES HEREBY AGREE: I ACKNOWLEDGE BY MY SIGNATURE BELOW THAT I HAVE NOT PREVIOUSLY BEEN CONVICTED OF MORE THAN ONE DUI

OR A DUI OFFENSE REDUCED TO OTHER CHARGES.

NOR HAVE I EVER ATTENDED A PREVIOUS DUI SCHOOL. FURTHERMORE, I UNDERSTAND IF I HAVE ENROLLED IN THIS PROGRAM AS A FIRST TIME OFFENDER, BUT IF I AM NOT, I MUST NOW ATTEND THE 21 HOURS OF MULTIPLE OFFENDER SCHOOL AND PAY THAT COURSE FEE."

I got a DUI about 8 years ago but it was dropped to reckless driving. What do I do?

Thank you so much for your help.

It looks like they ask you if you had a DUI reduced to other charges (you did). However it says MORE THEN ONE dui, if you only had that one (reduced) you should be ok to sign. If you have an attorney, you should consult with him/her to get any other questions answered.

Good luck,

The answer really depends on what happened with the first DUI. Did you have to do DUI school, even though they charged as a reckless? Did you lose the DMV hearing? If yes to either of those, then you will have to do the Level II school. Mr. Dorsten is right though and you should contact an attorney to be sure. Preferably, your original attorney if you had one then.
