FAQ's.
What's the difference between the courses and which should I take?
The 8-hour Driver Improvement Course is usually considered Part 1 of the 12-hour program, commonly referred to as RADEP. You would take this if completing RADEP, OR if you’re taking it for Court Ordered, DMV, Voluntary, or Insurance Purposes.
 The 4-hour Reckless & Aggressive Course is usually considered Part 2 of the 12-hour program, RADEP. You would take this course after completing the Driver Improvement Course to complete the 12-hour Reckless & Aggressive Driver Education Program.Â
How does this work? Are the courses self-paced?
Both courses are 100% self paced! You can start, stop, and finish anytime that is convenient for you.Â

If you find one or both courses for a lower price, even from the big box companies with little to no direct customer support, just email zach@adaptdriving.com with details and we will refund the difference +$5. We take pride in our service, but we know times can get tight and price matters as much as quality. We can’t keep up with every competitor out there, nor would we want to deter preventative education from becoming more widely available, so we guarantee our price, our service, and our customer satisfaction.Â
Student Testimonials
What my students have to say?
HI, I hope the team at ADAPT is well. I just finished the 4 hour reckless and aggressive driving course as well as the 8 hour drivers improvement course before. I read at the beginning of the 12 hour course if I need my certificate within the next 2 days of court to email you guys immediately. I have court on June 11th 2 days from now. I just wanted to email and let you guys know as I read to do that at the beginning of the course.Thank you guys so much the course was more than helpful, I wish you guys the best at ADAPT!
On another note...I have to be honest in that when I signed up, I was a bit skeptical and assumed I was going to be taking a course to fulfill a need. But...I was wrong. I learned so much from the course and I truly believe everyone who has had at least one citation, should take this course. Plus every new driver should take this course as it is so informative. My family already asked me "Dad, why are you driving normal" 🙂... It's a good feeling and I feel bad it took me all these years to take a course like this but better late than never. Thank you again...I learned so much.
