MS to FL drivers license...Or motorcycle only in FL?

Question

I have about 22 points on my license in MS, they don't use the point system to suspend licenses'. I just bout a Motorcycle in FL but i have to take the Driving course in order to get my license. Can i take the course and get a motorcycle only license for FL or do i have to transfer my DL to FL and then take the class.

If i transfer my MS license to FL will the points transfer? Because i would have an automatically suspended license. I dont have the time to go back and forth to MS for three days. I work in FL A LOT

Answer 1

I have land in MS and live in FL, and the license folks here are jerks.  I would recommend getting your motorcycle endorsement in MS, not only is the insurance cheaper in MS, but the rules are more slack too.  The flip side is with a FL license you can file your taxes as a Floridian and you don't have to pay MS state income tax.  FL has no state income tax.  Since your MS state taxes are deductible on your federal taxes, it still works out cheaper to get your MS motorcycle endorsement.
