To Attend Traffic School
Traffic School Qualifications:
- You cannot be assigned to, nor have attended traffic school in the last 18 months.
- If charged with a speeding violation, the speed must not have been in excess of 100 m.p.h.
- If charged with a speeding violation, the speed must not have been in excess of 25 m.p.h. over the posted speed limit.
- You must be charged with an infraction.
- The section(s) cannot require a mandatory appearance.
- Drivers with a commercial driver license (class A, B or commercial class C) regardless of the type of vehicle being driven at the time of violation are not eligible.
- Certain serious vehicle code violations are not eligible for traffic school.
If you meet these requirements and wish to attend Traffic School, you will be required to pay an Administrative Fee, PLUS the amount of bail indicated on your courtesy notice. Checks may be made payable to Superior Court. There will be a separate fee collected by the Traffic School you choose to attend. Upon receiving proof of completion of Traffic School in a timely manner, your case will be deemed a "confidential conviction" rather than a "dismissal". The confidential conviction will be masked and held confidential by DMV. Only one conviction within 18 months will be held confidential.
