California courses.

Did you get a traffic ticket in California and prefer to keep it from showing up on your driving record? This is what is known in California as a confidential conviction. As of July 1, 2011, traffic violations where you elect or have been ordered to attend California traffic school will no longer be dismissed from your record. Completion of a California DMV approved traffic school course will now mask the violation from public record. For example, insurance companies will not see a confidential conviction.

However, a traffic ticket will not be masked if: you have taken traffic school in the past 18 months for another ticket; you received a major (2 point) violation (DUI or Reckless Driving); or you were operating a commercial vehicle during the violation.

Choosing NOT to take a traffic school in California could cause your automobile insurance to be negatively impacted and the points associated with the citation will go on your driving record. Accumulating too many points can lead to being categorized as a Negligent Operator which may result in suspension of your driver's license by the DMV.
