Florida's Implied Consent Law means:

You may refuse chemical testing once without penalty, but a second refusal carries an 18-month suspension.
By operating a vehicle in Florida, you have consented to breath or blood alcohol testing if lawfully requested by an officer.
Refusing testing results in an automatic 6-month license suspension.
You may refuse chemical testing without consequences when asked by law enforcement.
Explanation

Florida’s Implied Consent Law states that by driving in the state, you automatically agree to submit to chemical testing (breath, blood, or urine) if a law enforcement officer has reasonable grounds to suspect impairment. Refusing to take the test results in serious penalties: a first refusal leads to a one-year license suspension, while a second refusal carries an 18-month suspension and a first-degree misdemeanor charge. Never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
