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- Your license has been revoked and you are required to complete the course as part of your reinstatement process.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 are 20 and over and have a Virginia driver's license, and 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.
To receive credit for the course and to receive your Certificate of Completion to satisfy court or DMV requirements you must take the final exam in-person at one of our test areas. You must bring your license or DMV ID card and the court or DMV instruction paper (IF YOU HAVE ONE) to the test area. The cost of the course is null and we accept null.
To satisfy a driver Improvement Clinic requirement, you must complete all 11 sessions of the Driver Improvement Clinic (DIC) online and pass the final exam at a test area.
