In Georgia, if you take a Driver Improvement Course you can get points removed from your driving history. Once every five years you can take this course in GA.
You may not take a Georgia Defensive Driving course / traffic school for car insurance reduction and point reduction or for more than one infraction. So you will need to choose which reason you want to take the class for make sure that the course will provide you the insurance reduction or points reduction you want since you cannot take it for both reasons.
According to the GA Department of Driver Services (DDS), they do not allow motorist to take traffic school classes over the Internet or on a computer. The DDS only permits classroom instruction for its approved driving school. The DDS should be able to provide you answers on other questions you have about this type of class or if there are other ways for reducing the points on your license.
Albany Georgia SR22 Auto Insurance Rates
Q: Does the kind of car I drive have any effect on the price I will pay for my Albany Georgia SR22 car insurance?
A: Yes, it definitely does. I recommend anyone who is filing Albany GA SR22 car insurance to take a look at the kind of car they own or are considering buying before they go out and get their insurance. Knowing ahead of time what factors control the outcome of your car insurance rate will keep you from coming across some unpleasant surprises.
One big thing which will have an effect on the price of your Albany SR22 insurance is where your new car lies on the list of most frequently stolen cars. If it’s somewhere near the top, you’re going to have a mighty bit of explainin’ to do. A car doesn’t need to be a turbocharged sports convertible to be on the top of the most often stolen list, either. If your car is there, invest in some anti theft devices for a discount on your coverage.
Another thing will be the safety of your car. If you buy a big car, like an SUV or large truck, you’ll be charged more for your SR22 insurance than you will if you buy a mid sized vehicle, because these vehicles cause more damage.
