Florida GrandDriver® is an education and awareness campaign of the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles and is based on a program developed by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA). The goal of the campaign is to educate the public about the effects of age on driving ability and to encourage drivers to make appropriate choices as we age - choices that maximize personal safety and the safety of our communities.

Using interactive community outreach activities combined with Web-based communication support, the Florida GrandDriver® campaign is designed to help prepare drivers to "Get Around Safe and Sound." in their later years. The campaign aims to educate drivers family, friends and caregivers about the challenges many people face trying to stay connected to communities as we age. Florida GrandDriver® provides information about various steps drivers may take to maintain independence as long as possible as well as actions we can take to stay mobile in our communities when we restrict or stop driving.

At the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV), we come into contact with nearly every Floridian as well as many visitors to our state.

People get a driver's license for operating a vehicle or for simply having photo identification. They register and title their automobiles, mobile homes, and boats. They may receive assistance from the Florida Highway Patrol if they are involved in a crash or their vehicle breaks down along Florida's highways. Often the Highway Patrol will remind drivers to slow down and to buckle up.

DHSMV's mission is making highways safe through service, education, and enforcement. Visit our home page at www.hsmv.state.fl.us for more information on all that DHSMV can do for you.
