Why Take Defensive Driving Courses?
Traffic safety school may be ordered by district/municipal courts as a diversion program. Once you have successfully completed 911 Driving School’s Defensive Driving Class, you may be allowed to keep a traffic infraction off your driving record.
Be sure to first check with your referring court prior to taking the course for your eligibility.
There are also cases where drivers may qualify for a “deferred finding” if it is requested during a mitigation or during a contested hearing. In order for a deferred finding to not appear on your driving record, the judge may set one or more conditions, including:
- No additional traffic violations over 6 to 12 months
- Attend a traffic school
- Compliance with other traffic related conditions
- Some states may allow a deferred finding only once every 7 years
It is the responsibility of the student to ensure the court/insurance acceptance before taking any traffic safety course for ticket dismissal, fine/point reduction or insurance cost reduction.
