How the Point
Removal Process
Works in Virginia.
Most Virginia drivers find out about “driver improvement” when they need to remove points or satisfy a court requirement. Here’s how it works:
1. DMV Point System Basics
Each traffic violation adds demerit points to your driving record. The more points you have, the higher your risk of suspension — and insurance rate increases.
2. How a Driver Improvement Course Helps
When you complete an approved Virginia Driver Improvement Course, you can:
Remove up to 5 demerit points (by earning “safe driving points”)
Satisfy a court or DMV requirement for traffic violations
Reduce insurance premiums with certain providers
3. Reporting to the DMV
Once you complete the course, ABC Drive Improvement reports your results electronically to the Virginia DMV, ensuring your safe driving points are applied quickly and correctly.
