Safe Drivers Academy made the entire process of taking a defensive driving course incredibly easy and convenient. I was able to complete the course from my phone, and the platform was user-friendly and intuitive. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for an easy way to complete their driving course.

I’m ready to take my driver’s test with confidence. The pre-licensing course covered everything I needed to know and more. The material was clear, engaging, and easy to understand, and the study guide was a huge help. I feel excited to get my driver's license!

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can you approve my account so I can start my course?

In order to grant you access to your Arizona traffic school course, we kindly request that you provide us with a copy of your driver’s license and a copy of your citation. Upon receiving these documents, we usually approve accounts within minutes. However, we advise allowing up to 2 hours for the approval process.

To expedite the approval process, we encourage you to submit clear and legible copies of your documents.

Is it really free to get started?

Yes, it really is free to start! We offer a Pay Later option that allows you to test-drive our course and ensure it’s exactly what you need before making any payment. We’re confident in the quality of our product and believe that once you try it, you’ll be completely satisfied with your learning experience.

Do I have to complete my course seven days before my court date?

Certainly. According to Arizona law, it is mandatory to complete your course at least seven days prior to your court or due date. If you require additional time, you can reach out to the court indicated on your ticket and request an extension. Once you obtain an approved extension from the court, kindly inform us of the new court or due date so that we can update your account accordingly.

I have a court date scheduled for tomorrow; am I still eligible to take the AZ Defensive Driving course?

If your court date is within seven days, it is necessary for you to reach out to the court and request an extension. In Arizona, it is a requirement to complete the course at least seven days before the court date. In most cases, if this is your first extension request, the court may grant an additional extension of 30 to 45 days. Once you obtain the approved extension, you can proceed to register for the course with the new court/due date or update your account accordingly.

However, if you have already received an extension in the past and need further time, it will be necessary for you to contact the court directly. Please note that additional extensions after the initial one are typically granted only in exceptional circumstances, such as illness or financial hardship. Ultimately, it is up to the court’s discretion to grant additional time.

Why does the price significantly exceed the advertised amount when I try to register for my traffic school?

When registering for traffic school in Arizona, it is important to note that the State requires defensive driving schools to collect specific fees on behalf of the state and courts. Here is a breakdown of the fees:

Course Fee: $18.99 State Fee: $24 – This fee is mandatory for ticket dismissal. State Surcharge: $45 – Also mandatory for ticket dismissal. Court Diversion Fee: This fee varies depending on the court and is mandatory for ticket dismissal. Processing fee: $10 At Safe Drivers Academy, we are transparent about all fees, and there are no hidden charges. You can access the complete list of fees without initiating the registration process.
