Online traffic school refers to a traffic school course that is completed over the Internet. These courses are similar in content to a traditional classroom traffic school course; however, online / internet traffic school allows the student to complete the course on his own time and at his own pace. Online / internet traffic school programs were born out of the concept of “home-study” traffic school and the increasing popularity of the Internet. The main purpose of taking a traffic school course is to maintain a clean driving record, and preventing a point from the DMV point system being added to your driving record. Points on your DMV record adversely affect vehicle insurance premiums, job opportunities and possible driver's license loss or suspension. The first "Online traffic school" was Traffic School Online, founded by Steve Soldis of Santa Rosa, California in Late 1996. The second On-Line Traffic School, Inc. (Olts.com). It was launched in March, 1997 in the Los Angeles Court System. Since that time, several other online traffic schools have popped up including: Save Time Traffic School (savetimetrafficschool.com), Go To Traffic School (gototrafficschool.com) and TrafficSchool.com.
