Driver improvement / Defensive Driving

The 6-hour Driver Improvement Program, often referred to as Defensive Driving, is certified by the Georgia Department of Driver’s Services.

This course recaps the basic rules of the road and covers many important Georgia highway laws. 1 Stop Driving offers two different schedules for you to attend the Defensive Driving Class.

The 6-hour Defensive Driving Class fee is $95.00 (Set by State Law), and we accept Cash, Money Order, Mastercard, Visa and Debit cards.

Why Take Defensive Driving:

Ticket Dismissal

Many Courts in Georgia will dismiss a ticket for a traffic violation if the offender completes the 6-hour Defensive Driving Program prior to going to Court. If dismissed, there will be no points placed on your driving record and your insurance will not increase.

You may complete the 6-hour Defensive Driving Program once every 5 years to remove up to 7 points from your record to prevent your license from being revoked.

License Suspension under 18 years old

You must complete the 6-hour Defensive Driving Program before your license will be reinstated, if you are under 18 years of age and are sited for 1 or MORE tickets that accumulate 4 or more points on your license in a 12 month period.
