Yes. When you complete an approved defensive driving course for an eligible citation, the citation is dismissed, so no points are assessed against your driving record for it.

240 minutes, or four hours. That is the shortest length Arizona law allows, and it is what Avanza offers. You can start and stop as often as you like.

Arizona requires every approved defensive driving school to collect all fees before a student begins the course. That is state rule, not a policy of ours, which is why we show you the full total before you commit.

Three of the four fees are fixed statewide: our course fee, the $24 state fee, and the $45 state surcharge. The fourth, the court diversion fee, is set by each court’s presiding judge under A.R.S. §28-3396, and it varies from $50 to $250 across Arizona.

Yes. The whole course works on a phone, tablet, or computer, and your progress is saved as you go.

Two: a copy of your traffic citation, and a valid government-issued driver’s licence or identification card. A clear phone photo of each is fine.

Arizona lets you dismiss a citation through defensive driving school once every 12 months. If you have already attended within the past year, this citation is not eligible for dismissal. Check before you enrol so you are not paying for something you cannot use.

Yes. Avanza is available in English and Spanish.
