Back on the Road: Everything You Need to Know About Arizona Traffic Survival School

Whether you’ve received a traffic citation, been involved in a serious violation, or simply need to meet state requirements, Traffic Survival School (TSS) is a vital step to getting back behind the wheel safely and legally in Arizona. At OlyMpus, we’re committed to helping drivers meet all MVD and court-mandated requirements through interactive, certified instruction at our Scottsdale and Tempe locations.

But what exactly is Traffic Survival School in AZ, and how is it different from a defensive driving course? Let’s break it down.


Arizona Traffic Survival School is an ADOT-approved course required for certain traffic violations such as:

  • Running a red light
  • Accumulating 8 or more points on your license
  • A first-time DUI offense
  • Reckless driving or aggressive driving citations
  • Underage violations or excessive speeding

Unlike defensive driving, which may allow you to dismiss a ticket, TSS is a mandatory, court-ordered driving class that focuses on behavioral change and accountability. Its goal is to prevent repeat offenses and reduce risk on the roads.
