Why Should You Attend An Online Traffic School? How About Reduced Car Insurance, Get Ticket Dismissed, and Improve Driving Knowledge.

by Dane Masters

So I’m a decent driver. I grew up in a home where cars-hot rods and trucks and the like-were respected, if not revered. I was trained in a driver education program at a high school that knew winter weather and anticipated the need for certain driving skills that transcend those of residents of sunny statessuch as driving on ice, sleet, and snow, for instance. And while I am quick and hyper-alert, while I love a good fast car and drive, I have only had three traffic violations in all of my driving life (which equals about thirty-one years): got a speeding ticket at 16, trying to beat curfew; got a no seat belt ticket in the eighties, when I was pulled over because a headlamp was out; and got a red light violation one night when I knew better but wanted to get home after working all day and all night at a college an hour and a half away from where I lived.

But what happened last week was incredible! I had just shifted to this town. I got pulled up for speeding (I was doing 44)! This town indicated the speed limit as 25 to 35. The same area shows two signs–one stating 25 and the other 35, leaving the driver very confused?

Anyway, the officer let me off with a smile and a jovial warning. When he discovered that my last speeding ticket was received 30 years ago, he felt that I needed refresher courses and advised me to go for traffic school online.

I had heard friends talking over the last few years about traffic school online, about how you can keep from adding points to your driver record (points increasing means, evidently, insurance rates increasing), and I had learned of friends having done traffic school online to relieve the cost of the traffic ticket. (A red light violation, once a staggering $107 in my area, for example, is now almost $400!) So now I get to experience first hand the traffic school online adventure.

Do a little research and get hold of a legitimate traffic online course. They should be able to teach you as well as provide you with such documentation that if ever you are hauled up in court, you can prove that you have a license. The hours are well suited for everyone’s needs. You can set your own learning hours and go at your own pace. The fees are reasonable. And there are different styles of teaching. The visual learner can go for cartoons and film shows; the verbal learner can stay happy with textual instructions; and the action-oriented person can stay content with games.

Thirty one years is a long time. So it is understandable if I forget traffic rules sometimes. Anyway, I will be getting refresher lessons via traffic school online. I should not feel too humiliated in the end. I shall learn through games and cartoons or comedy!
