our Allstate Driving and Traffic School courses are professionally written,
educational, entertaining, and courses that we are proud to offer to
you after 30 years in business. |
Q. |
Why go to a Florida Online Traffic School at all? |
|
When you receive a ticket, points are assessed on your
driving record as a result. Sometimes, you are ordered to attend traffic
school by a court of law. Often, this attendance will prevent the ticket
from appearing on your official driving record as points. Some insurance
companies even give discounts after you successfully complete a traffic
school course. Another reason to attend a traffic school is to become a
more responsible driver, lower your chances of being involved in a collision
(traffic school is sometimes assigned as part of the penalty associated with
drinking and driving), and lower your chances of getting a ticket. |
Q. |
How quickly can I finish this course? |
|
All Florida traffic school courses are designed to take
the equivalent amount of time as a traditional in-class traffic school.
The great thing about our online and video/DVD courses, however, is that
you work at your own pace. No one is sitting over your shoulder making you
slow down or speed up. Everyone works at different speeds and these programs
will allow you to proceed at your own pace and there is no time maximum for
the program. The average completion time varies, however the minimum time
is 4 hours. |
Q. |
How long does it take to get the certificate? |
|
The original certificate must be sent directly from our
office to you. Normally this process will take anywhere from 5-10 business
days, however, expedited mailing processes are available for the mailing of
your certificate. Our staff can e-mail you a secure copy of your certificate
for a small fee. You can also order a certificate copy to be mailed to you.
When you enroll, you may choose for regular mail or expedited service. (Note:
in a few instances, some of our courses may have slightly different instructions
than these. However, don’t worry for a moment. All information is clearly
provided to you during the course). And if you ever have a question, we are here to help! |
Q. |
Does the course cost anything? |
|
Unfortunately, there is a cost to attend traffic school or
for any of the courses we offer. Course tuitions vary depending on the program
you enroll for, but it will cover all elements of the course including immediate
access to the site and the regular processing of you traffic school completion certificate.
Regular Florida Traffic Schools charge similar fees. Traffic schools are
privately operated businesses and whether you sit in a class or choose an online
program, you will need to pay a fee. Our courses are low cost convenient and fun to take. |
Q. |
How can I pay for the course? |
|
You can pay for the course by credit card or by check. After
you fill out the registration form, you can be linked to a completely secure
payment page where you pay quickly and effortlessly. The site is encrypted to
make your on-line purchase safe. |
Q. |
What if my deadline for completion of traffic school (or other course) has passed? |
|
Contact your court for instructions regarding extension of
your due date. Our school cannot extend your due date. |

Q. |

Our home study internet courses are designed for the person

Q. |
I just got knocked off line in the middle of a section. What do I do now? |
|
Internet users are occasionally knocked off line.
This may result from a lost Internet connection, another call interrupting
your connection if you are on a single line with call waiting, or simply
because your own computer crashes. Remember, as you complete each section
of the course, your progress is logged. Completion of chapter one, for
example, cannot be lost if your answers are submitted to the system and
graded on screen. Being knocked off line at that point, will only bring
you back to the start of the next chapter, it will not delete chapter one.
Our website is unable to control your Internet connection and inactivity on
your part will not result in our system knocking you off line. Any activity
requirements will be on the part of your Internet service provider. |
Q. |
I use AOL and I keep getting knocked off line. What should I do? |
|
If you are using AOL as your Internet service provider,
you will have activity requirements while online. During some of the longer
sections requiring more reading, there is a chance AOL will knock you off-line
unless you remain interactive with AOL. Do not leave the screen alone for any
great length of time.....remain interactive with the screen. |
Q. |
Which browser is recommended for best access to your site? |
|
For best access to our website, we recommend using
Internet Explorer. The browser is free and can be downloaded at www.microsoft.com. |
Q. |
Are there any special computer or download requirements to participate in the course? |
|
There are no videos to download in our program and no special
requirements at all of your computer. If you are on this screen and on our website,
you can typically enroll and complete the course without a problem.
