Which Virginia Course Do You Need?
Most drivers land here for one of five reasons. Find yours below — and if your paperwork isn’t clear, call us before you pay a dollar.
⚖️
Court-Ordered Driver Improvement
A judge required you to complete a driver improvement clinic after a traffic violation. The 8-hour online course covers most orders. Confirm your court accepts online completion, then submit your certificate as instructed.
📋
Court-Ordered RADEP
Your court order specifically names a RADEP course — typically 4 or 12 hours, often tied to reckless or aggressive driving cases. Your paperwork states which length you need. Both are available fully online.
🏛️
DMV-Required
The Virginia DMV ordered a driver improvement course due to excessive demerit points or a probation requirement. The 8-hour clinic satisfies that requirement and protects your driving privileges.
⭐
Earn +5 Safe Driving Points
Take the 8-hour course voluntarily to earn up to 5 safe driving points on your Virginia record — eligible once every 24 months. A smart, proactive way to protect your record before problems arise.
💰
Insurance Discount
Many Virginia insurers discount premiums for drivers who complete an approved driver improvement clinic. Ask your provider first — a $99 course can pay for itself several times over in annual savings.
✅ All three courses are 100% online and open to Virginia residents statewide — Ashburn, Leesburg, Sterling, Herndon, Reston, Chantilly, Fairfax, Manassas, Richmond, Norfolk, Roanoke and beyond.
Compare the Three Courses
Same school, same support line, same-day certificates. The difference is what your order — or your goal — requires.
DMV Clinic
Online Driver Improvement Course — 8 Hours
This is Virginia’s standard driver improvement clinic, delivered fully online and approved by the Virginia DMV for statewide use. It covers Virginia traffic law, defensive driving, collision avoidance, and road safety in a self-paced format that saves your progress automatically.
It’s the right course when the DMV requires a clinic, when a court orders driver improvement, or when you want the voluntary +5 safe driving points. Pass the final exam at 80% or higher — with free unlimited retakes — and your certificate arrives by email the same day. We report your completion to the Virginia DMV electronically the same day you pass.
Limited Time Offer
4-Hour RADEP Course — Online
Virginia courts frequently assign a 4-hour RADEP course in reckless and aggressive driving cases. If your paperwork names a 4-hour RADEP requirement, this is your course — completed entirely online, at your own pace, from any device.
Finish the material, receive your completion certificate, and submit it to your court by the deadline on your order. If you’re unsure whether your court accepts online completion, call or text 703-817-5047 before enrolling and we’ll help you verify. Deadlines matter with court orders — start as soon as your requirement is confirmed.
Limited Time Offer
12-Hour RADEP Course — Online
Some Virginia court orders call for the extended 12-hour RADEP course. It’s the deeper version of the program — more hours, more material — and it carries the same flexibility: fully online, self-paced, pause and resume whenever life gets in the way.
Because 12 hours takes longer to complete, we recommend enrolling well before your court deadline. Your certificate is issued on completion so you can submit it to your court on time. Not sure whether your order says 4 or 12 hours? Check the hours listed on your paperwork, or send us a text and we’ll help you read it.
