This course is typically taken by individuals who have received a letter from the Michigan Department of State informing them that they are eligible to hide traffic ticket points. The goal of the Michigan BDIC is to help reduce traffic crashes, prevent insurance increases due to points on a driver's license, and improve safety on Michigan roads.

With self-paced learning, you'll be free to complete this requirement on your schedule in an interactive environment that gives you access 24 hours per day, seven days a week!

Although I didn't need them, the freedom for test retakes without additional fees relieved some stress. The slides were a bit frustrating if you're a rapid reader because they have to stay on screen for a minimum time and you just wait. Since completion is reported directly, that saves another trip to the courthouse.

I had the option of taking this course online or paying the fine for a minor speeding ticket. The course was very simple and straightforward. Easy to navigate. You are able to stop and start which was great because it takes a solid 4-hours to get through it. Once you have completed everything and paid your court fees, and such, they notify the courts. It was less than 48-hours that I was notified that everything was done. Highly recommend if you are in need of taking the online defensive driving school.

Terrific option! Plus it was a great review of current traffic rules! It has made me more mindful of my driving!

It's a good class to do at own pace, and you can go back if you didn't understand something and reread it. But that "take a picture to verify identity" was very frustrating as every time it asked for a selfie I had to take about 30 pictures before it would accept one.

FAQ's

Popular Michigan BDIC Questions

General Information & Eligibility

How do I know your school is a Michigan Department of State Sponsor?

You can visit the Michigan Department of State BDIC Sponsors List to double-check if a school has an active license issued by the state. The State of Michigan licenses Highway Traffic School as a BDIC sponsor.

Can a commercial driver's license holder take the Michigan Basic Driver Improvement Course?

No. If you have a commercial driver's license or got a traffic ticket while driving a commercial vehicle, you are not eligible to take the basic driver improvement course online.

How do I know if I am eligible to attend Michigan BDIC?

The Michigan Department of State will contact drivers who are eligible to enroll in the Basic Driver Improvement Course (BDIC). Eligible drivers have 60 days to enroll in, complete, and pass the course.

You may be eligible if you were ticketed on or after December 31, 2010, and:

  • You have a valid Michigan, non-commercial license with two or fewer points on your record.
  • The violation was not in a Commercial Motor Vehicle.
  • The violation was not a criminal offense.
  • The ticket you received is eligible (e.g., it must be for three or fewer points, not for careless or negligent driving, etc.).
How much time do I have to finish my basic driver improvement course?

The Michigan Department of State will contact drivers who are eligible to enroll in the Basic Driver Improvement Course (BDIC). Eligible drivers have 60 days to enroll in, complete, and pass the course. Your letter will indicate the last day you can complete the BDIC course.

My BDIC due date has passed. What can I do?

Unfortunately, there is nothing that you can do. The Michigan Department of State does not give extensions if you miss the 60-day deadline, and the points and the violation will be on your record and available to insurance companies.

Is the Highway Traffic School Website secure?

Highway Traffic School uses state-of-the-art security technology to secure your personal and credit card information! Whenever you submit personal information on our website, it is encrypted via "Hypertext Transfer Protocol" (HTTP) with "Secure Sockets Layer" (SSL) as it travels to and from our servers. In addition, we do not store your credit card information or share your personal information with anybody.

Your information is only used to report your completion to the Michigan Department of State for credit.

About the Course

How often can I take a Basic Driver Improvement course in Michigan?

Michigan law only allows a person to attend a BDIC course whenever they receive a letter from the Department of State. Therefore, if you receive a ticket and are notified that you are eligible again, you can take the Basic Driver Improvement Course.

Can I get an extension to complete the Michigan Basic Driver Improvement Course?

No. Unfortunately, the Michigan Department of State does not give extensions if you miss the 60-day deadline. The points and the violation will be on your record and available to insurance companies. However, if you receive another ticket and are notified that you are eligible again, you may attempt the BDIC for the subsequent ticket.

Will points be removed from my driving record by completing the Michigan Basic Driver Improvement Course?

No. But, the Department of State won't give insurance companies access to the points or information from the ticket for drivers who take and pass a basic driver improvement course through an approved sponsor.

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

Yes, you can complete your course on the same day. You can start immediately after registering and paying for your course on our website. However, Michigan law requires that the course is four hours long. So, expect to spend at least four hours taking the course.

How long does it take to complete the Michigan Basic Driver Improvement course?

The Basic Driver Improvement course will take approximately 4 hours to complete. Michigan state law requires that all BDI courses are a minimum of 4 hours in length.

But Highway Traffic School has designed the course so you can start and stop as often as you like. There are no limits on how many times you can log in and out. Our system will remember where you left off, so you can take the course at your own pace. There is no need to complete the course all at once unless you want to.

And you can enjoy taking our course on any internet-ready device from your computer, laptop, or smartphone.

Completion

Can I review the course material while I am taking the final exam?

Yes. The final exam is an open-book test.

What happens if I don't pass the final exam?

Most students pass the final exam the first time. The exam consists of 25 questions, and a passing score is 70%. But, if you don't pass the final exam the first time, you can retake the final exam as many times as you need without paying additional fees for more attempts. So, you can take our course without worry or stress – you'll have unlimited attempts to pass the exam. And you can always review the course material during the exam.

You are guaranteed to pass!

Do you send my certificate directly to the Michigan Department of State?

Yes. When you pass the final exam, we automatically submit your completion report to the Michigan Department of State electronically, and your official certificate of completion is available immediately.

How do I get a duplicate copy of my certificate of completion?

You can download, print, or save a copy of your certificate of completion directly from our website for no additional charge, and it is available immediately once you pass the final exam.

If you need a certified copy of your certificate of completion, you can purchase one from your course history page.
