FAQs
What is the Prosecutor Traffic Safety Program?
Prosecutors can allow some drivers who meet appropriate criteria to take a traffic safety program in lieu of paying for the citation. When you pay your citation, you effectively plead guilty to the charge and that offense goes on your driving record. By going through the Prosecutor program, your traffic citation is dismissed, and the point penalties for that offense will not go on your driving record.
Who is Advent eLearning/AdventFS.com?
AdventFS develops, hosts and supports traffic safety and other programs for prosecutors and courts across the country through our Advent eLearning platform.
What happens when I apply for the program on this site?
Your application will go to the Prosecutor in the county or city where you received your citation. If you meet their criteria, you will be approved to participate. You may also be contacted to show additional documentation (e.g. proof of insurance) before you are approved.
How will I know if I'm approved for the program?
Once the prosecutor has approved your application, you'll receive an email with log-in instructions to pay for and take the course. You will receive a decline email if you are not approved, and you should proceed with paying your citation using the instructions on your citation. You should receive an email about the prosecutor’s decision typically in 3-5 business days.
What do I select for “County” when applying?
Please select, from the drop-down list, the County, City or other jurisdiction in which you received your traffic citation. If the jurisdiction on your citation does not appear on the list, you cannot apply for the program online.
What do I enter for “Citation/Case Number?”
Some jurisdictions put Citation Numbers on citations, while others assign Case Numbers electronically. One of these two numbers should appear and be labeled prominently on your citation.
What do I select for “License State?”
You should select the State that issued the driver’s license you presented and that was recorded on the citation.
What do I enter for “License Number?”
You should enter the driver’s license number of the license you presented and that was recorded on the citation.
What do I select for “State?”
The address you enter, including the State you select, should correspond with your current residence address, where you want to receive correspondence about this case.
Why do you ask for my Mobile Phone Number?
The Advent eLearning system has the ability to text you course and login information if you forget that information later. This is optional for you to provide.
What is a Commercial Driver’s License?
A commercial driver’s license (CDL) is a special license for commercial drivers. If you do not know if you hold a CDL, please select “NO” in that drop-down.
What does the traffic course consist of?
The traffic safety program consists of online educational materials about driving safety and requires you to answer questions correctly throughout in order to pass the course. The course typically takes about one hour to complete on your PC, tablet or smart phone. Other formats, including DVD and booklet, are available upon request and subject to additional costs.
How will the Prosecutor and Courts know I took the course?
The Prosecutor’s Office will be notified as soon as you pass or fail the course. Once you pass the course, the County Attorney will notify the Courts that the charges have been dismissed. You will be provided a Certificate of Completion as well to keep for your records.
How much does the program cost to take?
The cost of the course varies by jurisdiction, and portions of the costs may go to multiple agencies as outlined by law. You will be notified of the cost for your jurisdiction when you receive your login instructions by email. You can pay for the course by credit or bankcard, check or money order. There is no obligation to take the course by applying: you can choose to pay your citation instead of taking the course.
