Should I go to traffic school in CA?

**prateek07** · 11-13-2018, 05:56 AM

I accidentally went by a stop sign but thankfully I can still take traffic school. I have a clean record

Should I even do it? I feel a stop sign ticket shouldn't increase my insurance right? Technically non-moving violation (jk)

After doing a quick search, I've come across one called Best Online Traffic School (frankly they all say best or cheapest LOL

).

Any experiences?

Whenever any of my friends become concerned
about “points”, for a moving violation, going on
their driving records...I tell them that attending
traffic school is always worth looking into—if for
nothing else: more positive evaluations regarding
future vehicle insurance rates.

Note:
Keep in mind this is OH that I’m
talking about. CA? YMMV.

Do online. I just did it. I read way more than I needed to. I could have done it in like an hour.

Way better than the premium increase.

going to traffic school will still remain on your record for 3 years, but the insurance will not know which keeps your premium the same. i would do it...

The only reason it remains on your record for 3yrs. is to prevent you from being able to attend again... Other than that I wouldn’t consider it remaining on your record.

@OP. Forget online class... Go irl, there’s always chicks at traffic school. Lol

I haven't been for many years but it is worth going once in awhile. You actually may learn something.
