It's not usually worth it. At the driving school near me, it's $300 for traffic school and 8 hours behind the wheel with instructor. It's like $250 for 8 hours behind the wheel alone, so for $50 more, just go to the local traffic school.

I found them very cheap now, range from $16.95 to $25, including shipping for the certification for the $16.95 traffic school.

Yes.

My wife more or less forced me into taking this online course to lower our insurance rates even more. The sessions are timed. In otherwords, one can't just breeze right through it.

The pages perform authentication by asking various questions during the course to discourage ringers. I think the total time required was about 6 hours to complete.

After receiving the certificate, we sent it to the insurance company. Our rates were lowered by 10%.

I live in California and traffic school was awesome! Mine was just an online test. It took me 20 minutes and I was done. I used to have the link, but I lost it... I think this is it. It was the best one. I highly recommend it.

Yeah, this one is awesome. Like I said, 20 minutes. I just skipped over the reading part and guessed at the answers. My parents were jealous because they spent 8 hours at the local Holiday Inn to get theirs done.

I had to do one in FL. They had it timed so I had to sit on the computer all 4 hours. I IMed and played windows games the whole time but it still sucked.

you should have found a better one as most of them don't ask any personall question during the test and you can guess as many times as you want till you get it right

Great idea.

Unfortunately, only three online schools are approved by the Texas Education Agency.
