FAQ’S

What is the purpose of the class? Re-educate you on driving safely and respectfully in an attempt to change your behavior. It may help you avoid a ticket or fine on your driving record, and for some, jail time.

Do I have to watch all three sessions at the same time? The sessions can be watched separately and whenever you want.

Can I skip through the video and just take the test? No, you are only able to pause the videos. You must pay close attention and use the provided study guide to pass.

What if I fail a test? You must re-watch the video and take the test again.

Will it be boring? Boring is a choice. The class is presented in an engaging, non-judgmental style with plenty of humor.

Do I really have to write comments as to what I learned or re-learned from each session? YES!

What if I think the program is stupid and have a bad attitude conveyed through my comments? You will be counseled regarding those comments and be given a chance to revise your thoughts. If DWSR believes you are serious in that you are getting no value from the program (other than what the court is offering) you will be dropped and a full refund issued.

What will I get at the end? Knowledge that will help save your or someone else’s life, plus a Certificate of Completion for the courts or probation.

Who is the instructor? Your instructor is Jim Thienes, who is a licensed Peace Officer and has been a licensed Minnesota Driving Instructor for 20+ years.
