What is the Virginia Driver Improvement Clinic?

The Virginia Driver Improvement Clinic is an 8-hour DMV-approved course designed to help Virginia drivers improve their driving record, refresh their knowledge of traffic laws, and promote safer driving habits. It can satisfy court-ordered and DMV-ordered requirements.

Who needs to take this clinic?

Drivers who have been court-ordered or DMV-ordered to complete a Driver Improvement Clinic, as well as drivers taking it voluntarily to earn safe driving point credit, are eligible to take the course.

Do I get points off my record or an insurance discount?

If you're attending voluntarily, you choose at enrollment: safe driving points (up to 5 demerit points offset) or a certificate for an insurance discount — Virginia doesn't allow both. The insurance discount isn't available for court- or DMV-required attendance.

How long is the course?

The Virginia DMV requires the clinic to be 8 hours long, including the final test. The course is self-paced, so you can stop and start whenever you like — our system saves your progress.

What is the final exam like?

The final exam is a multiple-choice test taken online at the end of the clinic. Per Virginia DMV rules, you may take the exam once per day.

When will my completion be reported to the DMV?

Completion is electronically transmitted to the Virginia DMV, typically within 24 hours of finishing the course.

Can I take the course on my phone?

Yes. The clinic is mobile-compatible and works on any device with a modern web browser — phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop computer.
