Wisconsin Driver Improvement Information

Wisconsin Traffic Violations

If you are a driver in Wisconsin and commit a moving violation, you will be issued a citation containing all the information you will need to handle the traffic ticket. This information will include, among other things, the address and phone number of the local Wisconsin court overseeing your traffic violation, and proper steps to take should you wish to pay the ticket immediately. This information will also include your court date, should you wish to dispute the charge or seek an opportunity to have the traffic violation dismissed or reduced.

Because Wisconsin courts have jurisdiction over the payment and dispute of traffic violations in their area, you should call the local Wisconsin court in order to determine what your options are with respect to handling the resolution of your traffic violation.

Wisconsin Points System

Wisconsin relies on a "points" system to track your Wisconsin driving history. Points do not accumulate for minor traffic violations, such as parking too close to a driveway. For each non-minor traffic violation you incur, the Wisconsin Division of Motor Vehicles ("DMV") will issue points against your Wisconsin driving record.

The following is a shortened list of traffic violations and their corresponding Wisconsin point values:

2 Points
  • Defective speedometer
  • Parking on highway in a traffic lane
  • Depriving another vehicle use of a full lane
3 Points
  • Speeding by 1-10 mph
  • Failure to give proper turn signal
  • Passing illegally
  • Driving with an expired license
4 Points
  • Speeding by 11-19 mph
  • Failure to yield
  • Inattentive driving
  • Weaving through traffic
6 Points
  • Speeding by 20 mph or more
  • Driving on a suspended license
  • Attempting to evade an officer
  • Driving under the influence

Suspension of Wisconsin Driving Privileges

Once you have received 12 points against your Wisconsin driving record, the Wisconsin DMV will mail you a notice of suspension of your Wisconsin driving privileges. If you are not sure of how many points may be on your Wisconsin driving record, you should contact the Wisconsin DMV to find out because you will not always receive a warning prior to having your Wisconsin driving privileges suspended. For example, if you have 6 points against your Wisconsin driving record, you will not receive a written warning. If you then committed a Wisconsin traffic violation causing 6 more points to be added against your Wisconsin driving record, your license would be suspended before you were given any warning by the Wisconsin DMV.

Attending a Wisconsin Traffic School or Safety Course

If you are just short of having 12 points assigned against your record, the Wisconsin DMV will mail you a warning and outline how you can reduce the number of points on your Wisconsin driving record by three points by attending a Wisconsin online traffic safety course or Wisconsin traffic school online. Also, if you have accumulated between 12 and 14 points against your record, attending a online Wisconsin traffic school course will also reduce the points against your Wisconsin driving record back below the amount necessary to have your license suspended. The Wisconsin DMV utilizes Wisconsin technical colleges to administer many of these traffic safety programs.

You may not have to attend a Wisconsin traffic safety program in person, though. If you would like to attend an online Wisconsin traffic safety course or Wisconsin online traffic school, the local Wisconsin court overseeing your traffic violation will have the ultimate say as to whether it will qualify to meet Wisconsin driver safety standards. An additional and potentially major benefit to pursuing this option is that, depending on the nature of your traffic violation and the state of your Wisconsin driving record, the court overseeing your traffic violation may consider reducing or even dismissing your traffic violation altogether in exchange for your participation in an online Wisconsin traffic safety program or online Wisconsin defensive driving program. While you are not assured of this outcome, the Wisconsin DMV does not reduce or dismiss tickets, or remove traffic violations from your record, simply for enrolling in a Wisconsin traffic safety course in order to reduce points from your Wisconsin driving record.

If you would like to take a Wisconsin online traffic safety course or Wisconsin online traffic school, you should either contact the local Wisconsin court handling your traffic ticket to see if your preferred Wisconsin online traffic school has already been approved by the court, or appear in court on the date provided on your traffic citation and humbly ask the presiding judge if you can take an online traffic school or online traffic safety course in order to have points removed from your Wisconsin driving record.

Participation in a traditional or online Wisconsin traffic safety course, traditional or online Wisconsin traffic school, traditional or online Wisconsin driver improvement program or traditional or online Wisconsin defensive driving program is only available to Wisconsin drivers once every three years.

The Benefits of a Clean Wisconsin Driving Record

Maintaining a Wisconsin driving history absent of points and violations can be a lifesaver in many ways. A clean Wisconsin driving record doesn't just ensure that you avoid costly citations. It is also the only way of assuring your Wisconsin driving privileges are not restricted, suspended or revoked indefinitely.

In addition to avoiding fines and penalties, a clean Wisconsin driving record will also significantly help you in maintaining lower car insurance payments. By preventing traffic tickets and points from piling up on your Wisconsin driving record, you significantly reduce the chances your auto insurance premiums will be increased. Often times, the increase to your insurance premiums can be a considerably larger financial burden than the traffic violation fine itself!

Mature and Juvenile Insurance Discounts

A good Wisconsin driving record can even result in an insurance discount. Wisconsin Mature Drivers, or those drivers over the age of 50, may be able to lower their insurance premiums by completing a mature driver course or Wisconsin traffic safety before or after incurring a traffic citation. Juvenile Wisconsin drivers, or those under the age of 18, should also contact their insurance carriers to see if they can qualify for lower insurance payments simply by participating in a Wisconsin online traffic safety course.

Overall, online traffic school and online defensive driving programs help drivers develop defensive driving skills so that traffic violations can be avoided in the future. The skills you develop in a Wisconsin traffic safety course or Wisconsin traffic school will help you avoid future traffic citations and lower your costs as a Wisconsin driver.

Wisconsin Classroom Traffic Schools

If you are required to or would like to be in a brick-and-mortar classroom for your Wisconsin traffic safety course, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation has an interactive web link that can help you find Wisconsin DMV approved brick-and-mortar courses in your preferred Wisconsin county, or the Wisconsin county where you are required to attend a classroom traffic safety course.

What are my Wisconsin court’s rules on defensive driving courses for defendants with multiple traffic citations?
