Two ways in
How Pennsylvania traffic school works online
Pick your road — the course itself is the same 4 hours either way. Pennsylvania has no traffic-school program of its own, which is why the ticket road starts at the judge.
Insurance discount 3 steps · no court needed
-
1 · Call your insurer
Ask whether they offer a defensive driving discount, how much, and for how long. Your insurer decides all three. Two minutes now, and you will know the exact discount.
-
2 · Take the 4-hour course online
Start and stop whenever — your progress saves automatically. Audio narration is included if you'd rather listen.
-
3 · Send certificate to your insurer
Download it the moment you pass and forward it on. Your insurer applies the discount it confirmed.
Traffic ticket 4 steps · ask your judge first
-
1 · Ask your judge first
Pennsylvania has no traffic-school program. A judge may still let you take a course for your ticket, case by case, but only if you ask. Get that permission before you enroll. Wondering what the ticket does to your record? See how many points a Pennsylvania ticket carries.
-
2 · Enroll and take the course
4 hours, 5 units, at your own pace on any device.
-
3 · Pass the open-book final
20 questions, 80% to pass, unlimited free retakes. You are set up to succeed.
-
4 · Submit it to your court
Your certificate downloads instantly when you pass — no waiting on processing or mail. In Pennsylvania, you deliver it to the court yourself. You're never stuck waiting on us.

The insurance road, in dollars
PA defensive driving insurance discount: what it's worth
Insurers that offer the discount set their own rate and how many years it runs — some call it an insurance reduction or a safe-driver credit. Call yours before you enroll, then put their numbers in here. The course is a one-time $24.95; the discount repeats at every renewal it applies to.
Not the PennDOT mature driver (55+) program — this course isn't approved for that one.
Questions, straight answers
Pennsylvania Defensive Driving FAQ
Do Pennsylvania courts accept this course?
PennDOT does not regulate or approve online traffic school in Pennsylvania. Acceptance is decided by your court, case by case. Ask your judge for permission before you enroll. If the court says yes, our certificate documents your completion.
Will this course dismiss my ticket or remove points?
Only if your court allows it. No course you can choose removes Pennsylvania points. There's no guarantee a judge will approve traffic school for your citation. That's exactly why we tell you to get permission first.
Can I take this course for an insurance discount?
Yes — and no court permission is needed for that. Call your insurance company first to confirm they offer the discount, how much it is, and how long it lasts.
Is this an online traffic safety course?
Yes. Traffic safety course, traffic school, defensive driving: different names, one course. This is it. Four hours, fully online, on any device. Pennsylvania runs two courses of its own. PennDOT's Driver Improvement School is ordered, never chosen, and we are not approved to provide it. Its mature driver course is for drivers 55 and older. PennDOT does not approve any voluntary traffic school, ours included. So no school can call a course like this one state-approved in Pennsylvania. Take it for one of two reasons. Your insurer confirms a discount. Or your judge has agreed to consider a course for your ticket.
Is this the Pennsylvania 55+ mature driver course?
No. This course is not PennDOT-approved for the mature driver (55+) insurance discount program. If you're specifically looking for that program, this isn't the right course for you.
How long does the course take?
About 4 hours. Start and stop as often as you like — your progress saves automatically. Your course stays active for one year.
What's the final exam like?
20 questions, open book, 80% to pass. If you miss it, retake it as many times as you need — retakes are free and never cost extra.
Can I take it on my phone?
Yes — phone, tablet, or computer. No app required.
What's the total price?
$24.95. That includes the 4-hour course, audio narration, unlimited exam retakes, and your downloadable certificate of completion. There are no processing fees or hidden charges — the $24.95 on this page is the price at checkout.
How do I pay?
Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, Apple Pay, or Google Pay — over an encrypted connection. We don't store your card details.
Do you send my certificate to the court?
In Pennsylvania, you submit it yourself — and that works in your favor. Your certificate is ready to download and print the instant you pass. No waiting on processing or mail delivery.
How fast do I get my certificate?
Immediately after you pass the final exam. Download it, print it, save it — it's yours on the spot, free.
What if I need another copy later?
Download it again anytime from your account at no charge.
Ready when you are.
