How do I find my court code on my traffic ticket?

Your court code is printed in the court information section of your California traffic citation. For all Los Angeles County courthouses, the code will be a 5-digit number starting with “19” — the DMV’s county prefix for LA County. Look for it near the courthouse name or case number on your ticket. If your citation displays an older 2- or 3-digit code, it has been converted to the current 5-digit format by the DMV. You can match your code to the courthouse table on this page to confirm which court your case is assigned to.

Is this Los Angeles County traffic school accepted by all courts?

Yes. Bell Gardens Traffic School holds California DMV License #E9562 (TVS #1083) and is accepted by every Los Angeles County Superior Court location. This covers all 33+ traffic court divisions, from Metropolitan Courthouse in downtown Los Angeles to the Catalina Island court in Avalon. We have been DMV-licensed and court-accepted since 1994. When you complete our course, we electronically file your completion certificate with both the California DMV and your assigned courthouse.

How much does Los Angeles County traffic school cost?

Our online course costs $44.95 — that is the total price with no hidden fees and no upsells. The $44.95 includes the full DMV-approved course, final quiz with unlimited retakes, completion certificate, electronic DMV filing, and electronic court filing. There is nothing else to pay us. Separately, the Los Angeles County Superior Court charges a $64 administrative fee for traffic school, which you pay directly to the court along with your traffic fine. Our course fee and the court’s administrative fee are two different payments to two different entities.

How long do I have to complete Los Angeles County traffic school?

You must finish your traffic school course before the court deadline printed on your citation. In Los Angeles County, most courts allow approximately 60 to 90 days from the date you request and are granted traffic school. It is critical that you pay your bail (fine) and formally elect traffic school before your due date, or you may lose eligibility.

If you need additional time, the LA County Superior Court may grant a one-time 60-day extension. Call the LA Traffic Call Center at (213) 633-6300 between 8 AM and 4:30 PM on weekdays to submit your extension request.

Will traffic school keep my ticket off my insurance?

Yes. Completing a DMV-approved Los Angeles County traffic school course for an eligible one-point violation masks the ticket from your public driving record. The point is not reported to or counted by your insurance company, which means your rates will not increase because of this ticket. Without traffic school, a single point can raise your insurance premiums by an average of 20% for up to three years. California law allows you to attend traffic school once every 18 months.

What is the traffic school administrative fee in Los Angeles County?

The Los Angeles County Superior Court charges a $64 administrative fee for traffic school. This fee is paid directly to the court and is separate from the fee you pay to the traffic school for the course itself. When you receive your courtesy notice from the court, the $64 administrative fee will be listed alongside your bail amount.

You pay both the bail and the administrative fee to the court when you elect traffic school. Our online course fee of $44.95 is a separate payment made to Bell Gardens Traffic School and covers course access, quiz, certificate, electronic DMV filing, and electronic court filing.
