What does Traffic School entail?
Traffic School is a set of classes on traffic safety. Traffic School can be referred to in multiple ways, such as Driver Improvement Courses, Defensive Driving Courses and Traffic Safety Courses.
What are the benefits of online traffic school?
Many people complete online traffic school courses to avoid a traffic ticket. Taking a Arizona Driver Improvement Course can sometimes help to reduce a ticket fine. It can also keep a driver's insurance low by not alerting the DMV to the traffic infraction. The concept of receiving these types of benefits from traffic school is the same throughout the country, though specifics differ from state to state. Each traffic school requires a fee, as they are considered private enterprises. The courses span 4 to 8 hours, and may be taken in a classroom or online in some states.
What is Different About an Online Class Compared to a Classroom Course?
Online driver safety courses follow the same protocol and offer the same certification as classroom traffic courses. Online curriculum provides a more convenient way for drivers to complete traffic school, while retaining the same text and videos shared in a classroom. The difficulty level of the online driver safety courses vary from state to state, but all traffic schools require a specific amount of class time and a passing score on a course exam. Taking a traffic safety class online permits you to complete the course at your leisure, when your schedule allows.
