Content was not very engaging like advertised. It was paragraphs of text with one photo on the page. No videos or anything interactive. But the information was a great refresher!

Easy to use, low cost (except for the ticket) and gave great information you forget. Just remember to hit the next button when the timer is up. It does make you take the 4 hours you are supposed to spend to do the class. If I get another ticket in another 5 years, I'll look for Highway traffic school again.

Very easy! Great customer service, too. Had to call to change my first name and it was done in seconds. Was notified it was sent to the state the exact day they said it would! Took about 6 hours total with a few breaks, so nothing too bad at all if it’s going to keep my insurance down!

My son used the site. He found the resources to be very helpful. After taking the practice test twice he felt ready for the real thing and he passed it on his first try. He found the test to be easier than the practice test which is always a good sign of strong resources.

FAQ's

Popular CA Traffic School Questions

General Information & Eligibility

How do I know your school is a DMV-licensed traffic school?

You can visit the California DMV Traffic School List webpage to double-check if a school has an active license issued by the state. Highway Traffic School is a California DMV licensed online traffic violator school.

Check out a copy of our certification letter from the state — DMV Licensed Traffic Violator School #E9564.

Can a commercial driver's license holder take traffic school online?

If you have a commercial driver's license and got a traffic ticket while driving a non-commercial vehicle, you may be eligible to take traffic school online. The conviction may still appear on your driving record and count as points. Once you have completed the traffic school online and the court has processed your certificate of completion, you will need to contact the DMV Driver Safety Unit at (916)657-6452 to have the points masked from your driving record.

How often can I do traffic school in California?

California law only allows a person to attend traffic school once every 18 months. Eligibility is tracked by using the date of the violation – the date you received your last citation. We cannot check whether you are eligible; You are responsible for making sure you are eligible to attend traffic school.

How can I get an extension?

You will need to contact the assigned court listed on your ticket to request an extension.

By completing traffic school, will points be removed from my driving record?

Once you pay the fine for your ticket AND complete traffic school on time in California, the points associated with that ticket will not show up on your driving record.

The courts in California and the California DMV do not dismiss traffic tickets. Instead, when traffic school is completed, the DMV will "hide" the points on your driving record from third parties, like insurance companies and employers. But, the DMV and law enforcement can still see the ticket on your record.

My due date is today! Can I still finish my traffic school today?

Yes, you can complete your course on the same day. Once you have registered and paid for your course on our website, you can start immediately.

The course is at your own pace, with no timers. We have seen students finish the course within 30 minutes, and others may take over 5 hours. It depends on how quickly you can read and pass the final exam.

How do I check if I'm eligible for traffic school?

Please contact the court listed on your ticket to check your California DMV traffic school eligibility. The court will usually send you a courtesy notice via USPS mail letting you know if you are eligible. Generally, you can attend traffic school if:

  • You have not attended traffic school for a previous violation within the last 18 months.
  • You were not driving a commercial vehicle or carrying hazardous materials when you got your ticket.
  • You were not cited for a violation with a negligent operator count of more than one point.
  • The charge must be a qualified moving violation.

The following offenses are NOT eligible to attend a California Traffic School course:

  • Any misdemeanor or two-point violation.
  • Any violation where the alleged speed is more than 25 MPH over the speed limit.
  • Any violation involving alcohol or drugs.
  • Any violation with an outstanding failure to appear.
  • Any zero-point violation, such as parking or equipment violations.
How do I request traffic school in California?

Most courts will send a courtesy letter in the mail, typically about two weeks after getting your ticket. In the letter, the court will indicate your options for taking care of your traffic ticket and whether you are eligible for California traffic school. If you qualify, the court will let you know the cost of attending traffic school. In most cases, the court will charge you an election fee to attend traffic school. This fee is an administrative fee from the court and separate from any fee charged by traffic school businesses.

You must elect to attend traffic school and pay the court fees and fines before starting an online traffic school course. For some courts, you can take care of this by visiting the court's website, calling them, or visiting them in person.

About the Course

How long does online traffic school take in California?

The California DMV requires all classroom traffic schools to have 340 minutes (5 hours and 40 minutes) of instruction time and allow 60 minutes for the exam. However, online courses are not timed but must have a minimum number of words in the course.

Therefore, our online course is self-paced without any timers. We have seen students finish the course within 30 minutes, and others may take over 5 hours. Of course, the amount of time you spend depends on how quickly you can read and pass the final exam.

How long will the court take to process my traffic school completion?

Once you have successfully passed the final exam, we will electronically submit your certificate of completion to the California DMV and the court immediately. We do not charge extra for rush service. Our system will automatically report your completion as soon as you pass the exam.

NOTE: Depending on the court, processing your certificate may take several days to a few weeks. If you complete traffic school on time, the court will not penalize you for processing time and will honor the date you completed the class.

Are there practice questions throughout the course before taking the exam?

Yes, there are multiple-choice practice questions throughout the course that will need to be answered correctly before continuing with each unit.

Does your traffic school course have a final exam?

Yes, the State of California DMV mandates a final exam for all online traffic schools with a time limit of 1 hour. The exam is an open-book test. You can check your answers and refer back to the content if needed. The exam has 25 multiple-choice questions. You must pass the exam with a 70% or higher score — no more than seven questions wrong to pass. If you cannot pass the exam for some reason, you will have a second attempt to retake the exam. Keep in mind that most people tend to pass on their first try.

We guarantee you to pass even if you cannot pass your exam on the second attempt. You will be able to retake the class at no additional cost and continue to try the exam again as needed.

Do you have to finish the course all at once?

No, unless you want to. You can take this course at your own pace. The system will allow you to sign in and out as many times as you like. It will keep track of your work.

Pricing & Payment

Why do I have to pay for traffic school online when I already paid at the court?

The courts in California will charge an administrative fee for attending traffic school. All traffic schools charge a course fee, which is separate from the court's administrative fee you have paid with the court.

Other traffic schools advertise "Start Traffic School For Free." So why do you charge upfront?

Some schools may advertise to take the course for FREE and pay later offer to lure students into registering and taking the course. In most cases, these courses are not very high in quality and boring. Once you complete the course, they may entice you to pay more for the certificate of completion, charge you more for rush service, or require additional fees to report your completion to the DMV. Since you have already finished the course, you'll be pressured into paying even more, to get credit for the course.

At Highway Traffic School, we DO NOT play these tactics and in return, will offer you a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If you do not like the course, it was not what you expected; we will issue you a 100% refund. We are here to assist you to take care of your traffic ticket obligation.
