General Info

  1. Why should I take a driving school course?

Taking our course may help you reduce your insurance rates – check with your insurance company to see if they offer a discount for customers who enroll in an Illinois online driving school course. If you have received a Illinois traffic ticket, you’ll need to contact your court to receive permission to take the course for point reduction purposes.

  1. Is this course licensed by the state of Illinois?

I Drive Safely is not currently an approved course provider in Illinois. However, you still may be able to take one of our courses for an insurance discount. Your insurance provider will be able to tell you whether or not you qualify. You may also receive permission to attend the course by the local court or judge. If you would like more information about specific approval or regulations, you will need to contact your district court. And if you need help with anything else, contact one of our customer support representatives.

  1. I'm not sure if I'm eligible to take your online Illinois driving school. How do I find out?

Permission to take our online traffic school is granted by judges on a case-by-case basis.

You’ll need to check with your insurance provider to make sure they offer a discount for completing a Illinois defensive driving course.

What You Need to Know About Illinois DMV Hours and Services

In Illinois, drivers licenses and related services are conducted through the Illinois Secretary of State Office (SOS), not a department of motor vehicles, as many other states have. SOS offices are located in cities and towns across Illinois, and most offices keep the same hours of operation. Approved third-party vendors can also help you with certain DMV transactions.
