Ankeny Traffic School Details

Ankeny Iowa Traffic Violations

As an Ankeny Iowa driver, it is important that you are aware of the issues you may face should you be pulled over and issued a ticket for a moving violation. If you incur a traffic violation in Ankeny Iowa, you have a few basic options.

The first is to pay your ticket and move on. If you do so, you will be admitting guilt and can expect to see both points and the traffic violation itself placed on your Ankeny Iowa driving record. Contact information and steps for paying a ticket in person, by mail or online will be located somewhere on the citation you were issued, and the Ankeny Iowa law enforcement officer that pulled you over will likely point the information out when he issues you the citation. If you have other questions, you can contact the local Ankeny Iowa court clerk's office as well.

The Ankeny Iowa law enforcement officer who issued your traffic citation will also likely point out on your traffic ticket a court date, when you can appear in court to discuss the violation if you so choose. By appearing in the local Ankeny Iowa court that oversees you traffic violation, you can either plead guilty or dispute the charges. Also, if you appear in court you may have an opportunity to request an opportunity to participate in some form of Ankeny Iowa traffic school or defensive driving course in exchange for a lesser or dismissed violation. If you simply pay the ticket and do not follow up with the local Ankeny Iowa court clerk's office to review such an opportunity, both the violation and potential points attached to the violation will undoubtedly wind up on your Ankeny Iowa driving record

Ankeny Iowa Points System

The Ankeny Iowa Department of Transportation's Motor Vehicle Division ("MVD") keeps track of "points" against the Ankeny Iowa driving records of all Ankeny Iowa drivers. Whereas, in many cities in other states, points are assigned for the majority of moving violations, the Ankeny Iowa DMV restricts points for more serious violations. While that may help you avoid points on your record for some offenses, any points on your record at all can be a serious concern. Below are some examples of points assigned against your Ankeny Iowa driving record for certain infractions:

  • Driving under a Suspended or Revoked License: 2 points
  • Lying to the Ankeny Iowa Department of Transportation: 2 points
  • Driving Under the Influence: 4 points
  • Evading a Law Enforcement Officer: 5 points
  • Leaving the Scene of an Accident: 5 points
  • Vehicular Manslaughter: 6 points

Suspension of Your Ankeny Iowa Driving Privileges

Because such points are the result of clearly serious driving infractions, your Ankeny Iowa driving privileges can be suspended or revoked for a very small number of points on your Ankeny Iowa driving record, even if those points are accumulated over several years.

If you receive six points on your record over six years, your Ankeny Iowa driving privileges will be taken away for two years. Once you accumulate 8 points, you will lose your Ankeny Iowa driving privileges for 3 years. Amass 10 points? That's 4 years. If you wind up with 13 points against your Ankeny Iowa driving record, you face a 5 year suspension. At 16 points, your Ankeny Iowa driving privileges will be lost for six years.

Further, if you are involved in an large amount of avoidable accidents or incur an excessive number of moving violations-usually six or more-in a two-year period, the Ankeny Iowa courts or the Ankeny Iowa MVD may label you as a "habitual offender," and restrict your Ankeny Iowa driving privileges accordingly, including suspending your license for up to a year. And if you are caught driving after your license has been barred as the result of being a habitual offender, Ankeny Iowa courts will throw the book at you, possibly sentencing you to prison for as much as two years.

Attending Traffic School in Ankeny Iowa

If you end up having your Ankeny Iowa driving record suspended, revoked or barred, or you are convicted of a single instance of speeding by more than 25 mph, you will also likely have to participate in the Ankeny Iowa Driver Improvement Program. If you are ordered to enroll in the Ankeny Iowa Driver Improvement Program, which will include some form of traffic school or defensive driving course, your successful completion of this course will only result in satisfying one portion of your requirements to have your license reinstated. Neither points nor traffic violations themselves will be removed from your record. However, you will likely have an opportunity to be placed on probation by the Ankeny Iowa Department of Transportation and begin driving under some form of restricted license.

If you have not violated Ankeny Iowa regulations to such an extent that you face suspension of your Ankeny Iowa driving privileges and have not committed one of the several serious infractions that result in points against your Ankeny Iowa driving record, but still find yourself in court disputing or pleading guilty to a traffic violation, you may have an opportunity to have the traffic violation reduced or even dismissed in exchange for participating in an Ankeny Iowa online traffic school or driver improvement program.

Because Ankeny Iowa courts have jurisdiction over online traffic schools and online defensive driving programs, you will need to ask the judge or the local Ankeny Iowa court clerk's office whether your participation in an Ankeny Iowa online traffic school or driver improvement program will satisfy requirements which the court deems necessary to warrant reducing or dismissing your traffic violation altogether.

The Benefits of a Clean Ankeny Iowa Driving Record

Because serious traffic violations and the accompanying points that show up on your driving record can be so serious, participating in an Ankeny Iowa online traffic school or Ankeny Iowa online driver improvement program can be a significant aid should you find yourself facing a traffic violation charge or possible suspension of your Ankeny Iowa driving privileges. Ankeny Iowa online traffic schools are designed to teach and reinforce important safe driving techniques and defensive driving skills that will support the contention that you are someone who deserves to retain their Ankeny Iowa driving privileges. Also, these skills can help you avoid negligent accidents and traffic violations altogether going forward.

Ankeny Iowa online traffic school and driver improvement programs can have a significant impact on your insurance premiums as well. If participation in an Ankeny Iowa online traffic school can have any impact on reducing the violations on your Ankeny Iowa driving record, or merely by showing up on your Ankeny Iowa driving record alongside those infractions, your insurance carrier is considerably less likely to implement expensive premium hikes that can cost you anywhere from hundreds to thousands of dollars each year.

Ankeny Iowa Mature Drivers

Many insurance programs may even offer advance discounts for your enrollment in an Ankeny Iowa online traffic school or online defensive driving program, particularly if you are a Mature Driver. If you are a mature driver over the age of 55, you should contact your insurance carrier to see what effect enrollment in an Ankeny Iowa online traffic school will have on your monthly insurance premiums.

Ankeny Iowa Juvenile Drivers

Similarly, juvenile drivers under the age of 18 have notoriously high insurance costs based on young drivers' relative inexperience and tendencies to incur traffic violations and end up in traffic accidents. By showing your insurance carrier that you or a juvenile driver in your household is dedicated to safe and defensive driving, you may also qualify for a special discount on your auto insurance premiums.

Ankeny Iowa Classroom Traffic Schools

If you would like to enroll in traffic school set in a traditional classroom setting, or are ordered to do so by the Ankeny Iowa MVD or local Ankeny Iowa court overseeing your current traffic violation, you should contact your local Ankeny Iowa Department of Transportation office or the local Ankeny Iowa court clerk's office and ask for a list of state-approved brick-and-mortar traffic schools. In addition, Ankeny Iowa Driver Improvement Program courses are offered throughout the year at many Ankeny Iowa community colleges. The Ankeny Iowa MVD should also be able to inform you of the closest participating college.
