A Different Kind of Crash Course

In Virginia a vehicle crash occurs every three minutes. The odds are one out of four that you will be involved in a crash during your lifetime.

To reduce these odds, the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles has created a different kind of crash course. Our Driver Improvement Program rewards safe drivers and warns potentially unsafe drivers in advance. It helps educate drivers who have developed risky driving practices and it takes dangerous drivers off the road. Here's how it works.

• What does the point system say about you?
• Drivers Under Age 18
• Drivers Age 18 and Over
• A driver improvement clinic will put you back on the road to safe driving

Be sure to read Moving Violations and Point Assessments for more information about the driver improvement program.
