As an Internet course provider, we will notify the DMV within thirty (30) business days after you complete the course. A notice will then be entered on your driving record, and the DMV will automatically reduce your active point total by up to four points. Important: Completion of a course under the “Point & Insurance Reduction Program” does not remove, delete, subtract, or erase any violation, conviction, or notice of original number of points from your driving record. Even after you complete the course, most violations, convictions and points assessed will continue to show on your driving record for up to four years. Violations and convictions involving drugs or alcohol will remain on your driving record for ten years. “Point reduction” means the DMV will not count up to four points on your driving record toward license revocation or suspension. Point reduction does not affect the “Driver Responsibility Assessment”.
If you need to verify the course completion has been entered on your record, you may request a copy of your driving record from the DMV. To do so, you must complete a “Request for Driver and/or Vehicle Record Information”, available at any motor vehicle office or the DMV website. If your course completion is not noted on your driving record more than ten weeks after you completed it, please contact us.
If you present your certificate to your insurance company or agent within 90 days after course completion, your liability and collision premium reduction will begin immediately, retroactive to the date you completed the course. If you present your certificate more than 90 days after course completion, the insurer may issue the premium discount effective from the date presented. If you do not receive your certificate within four weeks after completion, contact us. You may take the course once every 36 months (three years) to maintain insurance reduction benefits.
