How it Works

Driver Improvement Clinic (DIC):

You may be taking this Driver Improvement Clinic for several reasons.

  • You may need to take it to satisfy a court order.
  • The DMV requires you to attend a clinic. You must complete the entire eight hour course within 90 days. If you fail to complete the clinic by the DMV deadline, your driving privilege will be suspended until you meet this requirement.
  • Your license has been revoked and you are required to complete the course as part of your reinstatement process.
  • You may also volunteer to take this course, if you have a Virginia driver’s license, to receive up to 5 safe driving points on your driving record. Students who satisfactorily complete this 8-hour course can now also get insurance premium reductions. Individuals should contact their insurance companies to advise as to whether or not they offer this discount for their insures.
The cost of the course is $70 and we accept PayPal or Credit/Debit.
