Before You Pay
Three Checks That Prevent Wrong-Course Enrollment
1. What does your paperwork require?
Driver Improvement generally refers to eight hours. Complete RADEP means the full twelve-hour educational requirement. Supplemental RADEP is the additional four-hour component when Part 1 is already satisfied.
2. Is online or classroom accepted?
Read the exact court order, DMV notice, or attorney directions. Online enrollment does not override an order that specifies classroom or in-person attendance.
3. What language access is appropriate?
Select English online, Spanish-accessible online content using Google Translate, or an English-language classroom. All course customer service is English-only.

Virginia DMV Safe-Driving Points
Qualifying eight-hour Virginia Driver Improvement attendance may result in safe-driving points, depending on the official reason for attendance and applicable DMV rules. Eligible voluntary attendance is generally limited to once every 24 months. DMV-required, court-required, under-18, insurance-purpose, and other circumstances have additional restrictions.
The four-hour supplemental RADEP course and the complete 12-hour online RADEP course do not independently award +5 DMV safe-driving points.

Experienced Virginia Driver Improvement and RADEP Education
Driver Training Solutions LLC has more than 20 years of experience with Virginia Driver Improvement, defensive driving, and RADEP training. Classroom instruction includes AAA Driver Improvement curriculum, and our training credentials include National Safety Council Training Center experience.
Program Administrator Damon Hogan emphasizes selecting the right course, understanding the attendance requirement, and completing the certificate process correctly. Driver Training Solutions provides education, not legal advice; your court, DMV, attorney, VASAP, or other referring authority determines whether a particular course fulfills your obligation.
Important Requirements Before Enrollment
CDL holders: These regular Driver Improvement and RADEP programs do not meet the Virginia DMV commercial-driver-specific Driver Improvement requirement.
Reckless-driving cases: A charge alone does not determine which education program is required. Verify with the court or attorney. Course completion does not guarantee a reduction, dismissal, or any particular legal result.
Four-hour online RADEP: Your prior eight-hour certificate and online Part 2 format must be acceptable to your referring authority.
Spanish-accessible courses: The lessons are not originally authored in Spanish. Google Translate can display supported course material in Spanish after course entry; customer service remains English-only.
Frequently Asked Questions
Virginia Driver Improvement & RADEP Services FAQs
What courses does iNeedAClass.com offer?
We provide 8-hour Virginia Driver Improvement,
12-hour complete RADEP, and 4-hour supplemental
RADEP pathways. The online selection includes
English and Spanish-accessible options;
available classroom instruction is in English.
How do I choose between Driver Improvement and RADEP?
Look at the exact course name and hours in your DMV
notice, court order, or attorney directions.
A regular 8-hour Driver Improvement Clinic
is not the complete 12-hour RADEP program.
Can an 8-hour Driver Improvement course count as RADEP Part 1?
Yes, an acceptable eight-hour Driver Improvement
completion may satisfy RADEP Part 1,
subject to the referring authority's acceptance.
Complete classroom RADEP then also includes
a separate 4-hour Part 2 session.
Can I register for only the 4-hour RADEP course?
Only when you already have an acceptable prior
eight-hour completion and your court or other
referring authority allows the supplemental
component in the selected format.
Does every Virginia court accept online RADEP?
No. Online acceptance varies by court and case.
Confirm permission to complete the course
online before paying.
Are the Spanish-accessible online courses taught in Spanish?
No. Compatible course content can be displayed
in Spanish using Google Translate after
entering the platform. The courses are not
originally written in Spanish and customer
service is available in English only.
How much does 4-hour online RADEP cost?
The English online supplemental RADEP
pathway costs $89.99.
The separate Spanish-accessible online
pathway costs $99.99.
Both require acceptable prior eight-hour completion.
Does online RADEP give me five Virginia DMV points?
No. Four-hour supplemental RADEP and the
full 12-hour online RADEP course do not
independently provide +5 safe-driving points.
Eligibility for points through eight-hour
Driver Improvement depends on the official
attendance reason and DMV rules.
Where can I take the courses in person?
Published classroom dates are offered in
Hampton Roads, including Virginia Beach,
Chesapeake, and selected Portsmouth sessions.
Check the live classroom schedule for
the specific date, city, venue, and any changes.
Are the online courses cash only?
No. Cash-only tuition applies to classroom courses.
Online courses use their designated
electronic payment processes.
Does a regular Driver Improvement class meet CDL requirements?
No. When Virginia DMV requires a commercial-driver-specific
Driver Improvement Clinic, a regular
Driver Improvement or RADEP course
does not replace that requirement.
