Traffic School Tips
I am way behind on posting, because I meant to publish this back in July. I think I need an assistant to coordinate my posts and keep the fresh content flowing, because apparently I cannot do it.
Anyway, back to the traffic tips. If you receive a ticket and are eligible for traffic school, pick the online course versus the instructor led crap. If you do not have a computer, run down to Kinkos, library, school, etc. and find a computer.
Why the urgency to find a computer and take the online course? Because, I used a handy-dandy tip that helped me pass with a 100% score and complete the test in approximately 20 minutes end-to-end. I do not think this tip is new, just sharing the information.
First, do not pick any of the new flash-based exams. Select an old school, text-based exam (there are some limitations, but we can work around them). Second, register for the exam and pay the ransom money. Third, get ready to blaze through the exams and score 100%.
Most exams cover five chapters with an end-of-chapter quiz and final exam. There is quite a bit of content to cover, but only "losers" read all of the content right? I have shit to do and people to see, so I fired up an instance of Microsoft Word and started the exam.
You probably know where I am going with this, but what the heck here is the tip. Navigate through all of the chapters and copy-and-paste the page contents into Word. When you're ready to take a quiz or final exam, simply "search" the document for the correct answers.
Yup! You got it right; search the contents of the document for the answer(s). No need to waste hours reading five chapters of traffic rules (unless you cannot drive for crap, then I insist you read the entire course).
Well, that is it! Nothing new, but I am going to assume that some spend hours reading the course and taking the exams. If you prefer to get your learn on, great. I have better things to do thus the tip.

hah, I totally did this the last time I had to do the online traffic school. However, the place I chose was smart enough to not copy the questions or answers verbatim from the text, so I had to get clever in my searches. Still scored 100%, but I also read through the text just to make sure. I have even less time for having to retake it!

I did this last time, it took me 30 minutes. I also did one for my dad, but instead of copying the pages, I did a ctrl N and opened 50 test windows. I probably failed each test 20 times before i pass.
