Course Details

Our home study online traffic school course is Court approved. It is the easiest and best way to attend traffic school in California. After enrollment, you choose your own username and password to gain immediate access to the traffic school course. Our program is simple to navigate, easy to read and understand, and perfect for Internet novices and experts alike.

Once you've read through the traffic school course materials and answered the quiz questions, you will then complete and submit a multiple choice final exam. You will know immediately if you have passed the traffic school course.

If you do not pass, you will be able to retake the final exam as many times as you need until you do pass at no additional cost. Your tuition includes the entire program and your completion certificate. Depending on your Court requirements, your completion certificate will be sent to you for your signature or we will send it directly to the Court for you.

We created our traffic school program to be as convenient as possible for any schedule. It is designed as an alternative to a classroom program, while allowing you to participate in at your own pace. You have the option of finishing the entire program in one sitting or, if you prefer, you may use your username and password as many times as you like and complete the course reading in increments of time, according to your own schedule. You may even print out the quiz questions first and answer them in writing as you read through the curriculum. The goal is for you to thoroughly comprehend and absorb the traffic safety information.

Course Benefits

Drivers who participate in the our online traffic school course will benefit in several ways. We are approved by all California courts in 53 counties, so you can be certain your course completion will be honored.

Traffic citations have points attached to them. The conviction typically appears on your driving record, as will the point, and this can lead to a suspension of your driving privilege. Upon successful completion of our traffic school course, the point will NOT appear on your driving record.

Additionally, points on your driving record can lead to increased insurance premiums. So attending the online traffic school course can save you money!

Your employer may also require you to complete our program to reinforce safe driving habits and enhance your knowledge of traffic laws. You may also take our traffic school course voluntarily at any time should you desire a refresher course on traffic safety. Parents take note: many of our customers have their teenagers take the traffic school course as a way of helping to ensure their safety behind the wheel.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to serve you.


Course Price

Our home study online traffic school course is affordable for every driver. Just how affordable is it? Depending on your Court and eligibility for Special Discounts, it is just 2 to 3 dollars per credit hour and goes as low as $14.35 for the entire course, which includes all of the following:


  • All elements of your course, including chapter reading with audio voice-over [ Learn more... ], multiple choice quizzes and final exam, and your graduation certificate. There are no additional fees.
  • Immediate access to the site and FREE Live Customer Support - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
  • Discounts are available for Active Military Personnel, Seniors, Students and Veterans. Click HERE to find out more!

Regular classroom traffic school courses charge similar fees but don't offer the convenience of a course that fits any schedule, or the peace of mind that 24/7 Live customer support provides.

The courts will generally require an administrative fee, separate from the ticket bail, to be allowed to take traffic school. This fee does not cover traffic school in any way. Traffic schools are a privately-operated industry and you will be required to pay a course fee whether you sit in a classroom or select the online traffic school course.

The tuition you pay guarantees that you will receive the finest educational materials, the best customer service and the most dependable and hassle-free online traffic school program in California.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to serve you.

  • Active Military Personnel

First Time User

If you've never attended a home study online traffic school course before, don't worry, we have 12 years of experience making online learning as simple and trouble-free as possible.

Drivers of all ages take our online traffic school course for two reasons:

  1. Voluntarily - because they've received a moving violation and they want to keep that conviction point off their driving record.

  2. Involuntarily - because they have been ordered by the Court to do so.

Depending on your Court, you will be given from one to three months to complete our program. Additionally, some Courts will allow you to request an extension. After you submit satisfactory proof of completion before your due date, your citation will be dismissed by the Court and reported to DMV as a Traffic School Dismissal. If you sign up for traffic school and fail to file the certificate of completion by the due date, the traffic school fee you paid will be deemed as bail and forfeited, and DMV will be notified of the conviction.

The Point System

All moving violations have points attached to them. Most are one (1) point violations (speeding, illegal turn, stop sign, etc). The more serious violations are two (2) point violations (for which you may NOT take this traffic school course unless ordered or allowed to do so by the Court). An excessive number of points on your driving record will result in your license being suspended or revoked.

You will lose your license if your driving record shows:

  • 4 points in a 12-month period

  • 6 points in a 24-month period

  • 8 points in a 36-month period

We urge you to do everything possible to keep points off your driving record, which means obeying all traffic laws, driving defensively and completing our online traffic school course, which will keep that point off your record and protect your driving privilege. So click HERE to register now.

Are You Eligible?

To be eligible to attend the online traffic school course:

  • Your violation must be a one (1) point violation. If you were cited for a more serious two (2) point violation like DUI, reckless driving, speeding over 100 mph, speed contest, hit-and-run, etc. - you are NOT eligible to take this course unless ordered or allowed to do so by the Court.

  • You must not have attended traffic school on another citation issued within the last 18 months of your current citation (unless ordered or allowed to do so by the Court). The 18 month period is calculated from the citation/violation date, not class attendance date.

  • If, in addition to your moving violation, you were cited for any mechanical, registration, driver's license or insurance violations, you must submit proof of correction before you are eligible to take this course.

  • You must NOT be a juvenile.

Before you take our course, you must first pay to the Court both your citation bail amount (your fine) and a non-refundable administrative fee. We, like all other traffic schools, will charge you a separate tuition to attend our program.

Depending on your Court, you may pay the traffic school administrative fees:

  • - On the Court website

  • - By telephone

  • - In person at the Court location marked on your citation

  • - By mail

If you do not pay the required bail and administrative fee, or are ineligible for an 8-hour or 12-hour traffic school course, your completion certificate may not be accepted by the Court.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to serve you.

Successfully completing our home study online traffic school course will allow you to dismiss your ticket and keep your driving record clean. We have made this process as easy as 1-2-3. Simply follow the steps below and you'll have your ticket dismissed in no time:

  1. Register HERE for our court approved home study online traffic school course.
  2. Begin reading the traffic school course. The course is designed to fit into your schedule, so you may start and stop whenever you like and we automatically save your progress.
  3. After graduation, we send your completion certificate to you or directly to your Court. Simply make sure you've paid all required court fees and that the court has received your certificate of completion before you due date. It's that easy!

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to serve you.


Insurance Reduction

Insurance companies base your rates on many factors. A key factor in determining your risk as a driver is your DMV driving record. Every time you receive a moving violation, points are added to your driving record, resulting in higher insurance rates until the points are removed three(3) years from when they were issued.

You can avoid all of this by taking our home study online traffic school course, which essentially blocks the ticket and points from going on your record in the first place. This keeps your driving record clean and your insurance rates low.

In some cases, insurance companies will offer a rate reduction of up to 10% for simply voluntarily finishing our course. You can find out if our home study online traffic school can reduce your rates by contacting your insurance agent and asking if a discount program for voluntary traffic school is available.

If you have further questions, please consult our 1st Time User or How it Works pages, or you can call us toll-free, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year at 877-9-SCHOOL (877-972-4665) and speak to one of our friendly customer service representatives.
