Traffic School Most jurisdictions have a provision allowing you to attend traffic school. Upon completion points will be removed from your motor vehicle report (MVR). It is always in your best interest to accept traffic school. You will still have to pay the fine but the amount you will save on your insurance premiums will be worth the effort. This may sound like a contradiction to my previous advice to always fight your traffic ticket. However our goal is to keep the ticket off your record and avoid the increase in insurance premiums. Don't pay the speeding ticket and then have your state DOT notify you that you are eligible for school. Typically you are only eligible to attend school once every eighteen months and only two points are removed. If you wait everything will be posted to your Motor Vehicle Report (MVR). What you want to happen is for the ticket and your attendance of traffic school not to appear on your record. Many judges have the option of dismissing your speeding ticket upon payment of the fine and completion of traffic school. By talking to the judge's secretary you can find out if this will be reported to the state. Always try to negotiate for this option. Then another jurisdiction cannot check on the frequency with which you have attended school, all the points disappear and your insurance carrier is not alerted to your driving habits. Traffic school normally consists of eight hours of classroom instruction. The classes are available at most technical schools and are held at night or on Saturday. This is time well spent since you will be saving between $1000 to $3000 on your insurance premiums over the next three years. In other words you are being paid over $100 per hour to attend school. Even with this tremendous financial incentive people avoid traffic school because they see it as punishment. Because of this resentment I feel that these types of classes are ineffective in improving driving behavior. more at: http://www.speedingticketsecrets.com |
