Sure. You can always take a defensive driving or online traffic school course.

After all, these courses are meant to promote driving safety and teach techniques that will help you become a better driver.

However, if you're thinking of enrolling in a traffic school course for other reasons, such as reducing the number of points on your license or lowering your car insurance premiums, you'll need to inquire with your state's driver's license department or your insurer for details. While all states and auto insurers welcome the notion of taking defensive driving courses, not all of them provide an extra incentive (such as a point or premium reduction) for you to do so. And, even among those that do, you'll need to find out if you must take your class from an approved provider.

If you need to take your defensive driving class from an approved school, your state or insurer should give you a list of schools that meet their standards. But, you can also try typing a phrase such as "approved online traffic school" (along with your state's or insurer's name) into a search engine. If you find a match, it's a good idea to confirm your findings with your state or insurer.
