Options for requesting defensive driving may be written on the back of your ticket, or you may need to contact the court handling your case. If you choose defensive driving, you do still have to pay for the ticket. In fact, you'll pay a little bit more out-of-pocket than you would if you just paid the fine. The savings you can achieve from keeping this violation off of your insurance, however, could be extensive.

If you are eligible for court supervision, check with the court clerk to see an Illinois defensive driving class from Driving University will meet the court's requirements. Our classes are completely online, so you can learn on your own schedule and at your own pace. Once you've passed are multiple-choice final exam, we'll mail your certificate the same day!
