If you're a resident of Jasper, Jenning, or White Springs, have a Florida Driver's license, or you received a traffic ticket in Florida, then traffic school may be for you! By electing traffic school you may be able to avoid points on your driver's license, and maintain your clean driving record.

If you received a traffic ticket in Hamilton County, within 30 days after the issue date, you need to pay the traffic ticket fine, and notify the Hamilton County Clerk of Court that you want to elect traffic school. Failure to pay the fine and attend traffic school will result in suspension of your driver’s license and the assessment of late fees.

There are many Driver School Course Providers in Florida. You can find a traffic school online, or you can enroll in a Florida DHSMV and Court approved online traffic school course with The Emilio School, Inc.
