Florida Repeals Law Mandating International Driving Permits

CAA is relieved the state of Florida is repealing a law today that made it mandatory for Canadian drivers to carry an International Driving Permit (IDP). The repeal comes after swift intervention from CAA, other stakeholders and thousands of Canadians surprised by the IDP requirement, which came into effect with no notice.

Effective immediately, Canadians in Florida can go back to doing what they have always been able to do – drive with peace of mind in the Sunshine State using their provincial driver’s license.
