( Legal )



In most cases, receiving a ticket for a traffic violation results in a number of consequences. The violation becomes part of your driving record unless you clear it by paying the fine and by taking up a traffic education course (also known as traffic school). If you fail to do so, the violation stays in your record and raises your car insurance rates.

However, many people fail to attend traffic school because they usually don't have enough time for it. A typical traffic school usually lasts for about 6 hours to a whole day.

An Online Defensive Driving Course

Defensive Driving Online offers an alternative to this inconvenience by allowing you to "attend" the class online. You can complete the class in as short as 6 hours, or as long as 90 days. You can choose to complete it at your convenience and pace, as long as you don't take longer than 90 days. Defensive Driving Online can give you the course right in your own home, or anywhere you can get online access.

How to Enroll in Defensive Driving Online

You simply access the site, provide your personal data and other needed information, and pay with credit card, personal check or money order. The site is open 24/7 so you can take your classes anytime. You can also call their customer representatives for any questions.

You will take an online exam once you have completed 11 lessons. Once you pass the exam and completed the course, Defensive Driving Online sends two main copies of your certificate of completion by mail in 7-10 working days. You give one copy to the traffic court in order for them to dismiss your traffic ticket. You submit the second copy to your car insurer, which might entitle you to a discount on your car insurance premium. If you fail the exam, you will need to take it again, and you get 3 chances to pass it.

The course itself costs about forty dollars, inclusive of the certificate. Additional tests are free, as long as you don't exceed the limit of 3 tries. You also need to pay extra for a copy of your driving record. For another twenty-five dollars, Defensive Driving can deliver your certificate by UPS overnight, provided that you complete the course by 3:00 PM of the previous day.

Limitations

While this online defensive driving course is valid in the state of Texas, other states may not recognize it. If you're from another state and are interested in taking the course, verify first with your state's traffic court and your car insurance company whether they will accept the certificate.
