MyImprov's District of Columbia Defensive Driving Course is a comprehensive online program tailored to equip D.C. drivers with essential defensive driving skills, in-depth knowledge of traffic laws, and proven safe driving techniques. Our course is designed to enhance road safety and reduce accidents.

The DMV will contact you after you’ve received a ticket; you’ll be informed if you are eligible to attend a defensive driving program and have your points removed.

Once the DMV contacts you and confirms your eligibility you’ll have 30 days to enroll in and complete a defensive driving course. Once you have successfully completed the traffic school program, the points will be waived (the violation will still appear on your record, but the points will not count against you).

If you opt not to take a defensive driving program, points will stay on your record for two years.

Insurance rates are likely to rise after you’ve received a moving violation or been involved in an accident. Many insurers offer to retain your original premium costs if you complete a defensive driving program. No accidents? Ask your insurer how becoming a safer driver can help you save.
