The requirements for traffic school eligibility are as follows:
Please note: Commercial Drivers are not eligible for Traffic School if cited while driving a commercial vehicle. For moving violations occurring on or after January 1, 2013, holders of commercial driver licenses cited while operating a vehicle that requires only a Class C or Class M license (such as a personal/non-commercial vehicle) may be eligible to attend traffic school. DMV will not mask the conviction from view on a person's driving record; however, no points will be assessed.
NOTICE: If you are eligible and decide not to attend traffic school, your automobile insurance and driving record may be adversely affected. One conviction in any 18-month period will be held confidential and not show on your driving record if you complete traffic school. If you complete traffic school when legally ineligible for a confidential conviction, DMV will remove confidentiality of the conviction from your driving record and the conviction and violation point will appear on your driving record at the DMV.
**The 18-month eligibility period for a confidential conviction after completion of traffic school is determined from violation date to violation date.
For additional traffic school eligibility information, refer to California Rules of Court, Rule 4.104.
Check your driver record with the DMV here. It's $2 per check and only the driver may check his or her California driver record. Once you have successfully paid for your record ($2.00), you will be prompted to view and print your record.

You can check your traffic school completion with the Solano Superior Court by following these steps:
Credit card payments to the Solano court are accepted by phone or online. There is a service fee to pay by credit card.
Financial hardship and ability to pay. If you have a financial hardship and can show that you are unable to pay the full amount for the offenses on your traffic ticket, you may request the court to consider your ability to pay. However, you must explain your financial situation to the court in person or fill out a Declaration/Ability to Pay form. You can get the form at any Solano Traffic Court Clerk window or click here: Declaration Form. If you appear in court and plead “guilty” at arraignment, you may request that the court considers your ability to pay in reducing the fine to be paid. If you plead “not guilty,” after a trial and conviction, you may request that the court considers your ability to pay in deciding the fine ordered for the offenses. (Veh. Code, § 42003(c)). Once the court determines your ability to pay you can ask it to reconsider if your financial circumstances change.
It is important to read the information on the front and back of your citation from the Solano Superior Court. The front side of the citation issued to you provides you with the following information:
Solano Superior Court Courtesy Notices
If you are cited for a traffic violation, the court will mail you a "courtesy" notice at the address listed on the citation. Most questions will be answered with information provided by the courtesy notice. Please allow approximately three to four weeks from the date you received your citation for the court to process your citation and mail a courtesy notice. You are still required to respond to your citation whether or not you receive a courtesy notice.
There are payment options to help avoid the inconvenience and time associated with coming to the courthouse. There may be an additional fee required for extended payment options. If you do not receive your courtesy notice or do not understand your options, you may come in person to the courthouse or inquire by phone or mail prior to your court date. If your appearance in court is required, your courtesy notice will indicate "Yes" next to the words “Must go to Court.”
