No. You cannot skip ahead in the Florida Driver Education Traffic Safety (DETS) Course. Lessons must be completed in sequence and each section is timed to enforce the state-required 6-hour minimum instructional time.

Florida law requires that approved DETS programs include a minimum of 6 hours of instructional content. To enforce this, the course locks future lessons until you complete the current one, and each section must be viewed for its required minimum time before you can advance.

The course is organized into 4 lessons. You must complete Lesson 1 before Lesson 2 becomes available, and so on. Within each lesson, topics must be completed in order. The unit quiz at the end of each lesson must also be completed before the next lesson unlocks.

Yes. You can go back and review any lesson you have already completed at any time. Only forward skipping is restricted.

Can I go to a later lesson before finishing the current one? Each lesson is locked until you complete the previous one and its unit quiz.

Can I skip topics within a lesson? No. Topics within each lesson must be completed in sequence.

Why can't I advance even though I've read the content? Each section has a minimum time requirement set by Florida. You must spend the required time on the content before advancing, even if you have already read it.

Can I review a completed lesson? Yes. You can go back and review any completed lesson at any time.

What if I already know this material — do I still have to wait? Yes. The timed sections apply regardless of prior knowledge. The 6-hour requirement is set by FLHSMV and cannot be waived.
