What Lowest Price Traffic School does

Lowest Price Traffic School, operated by The National Safety Commission, Inc., is a Florida-licensed online driver education and traffic school provider founded in 2003 and headquartered in Fleming Island (Jacksonville area). It delivers state-approved Basic Driver Improvement (BDI) for traffic ticket dismissal, the 6-hour Driver Education Traffic Safety (DETS) course for teen learner's permits (mandatory since August 1, 2025), the 4-hour Traffic Law & Substance Abuse Education (TLSAE) course for first-time adult license applicants, and—most recently—an online DMV written permit test for ages 15-17 plus a DMV Test Prep add-on. The platform is a 100% web-based, mobile-friendly learning management system with automatic progress saving, open-book exams with no time limit, and electronic reporting of completions to the Florida DHSMV; permit testing is delivered through IDEMIA/ITI under the state's Automated Drivers License Testing System (ADLTS).

The company operates four wholly-owned DHSMV-approved domains (LowestPriceTrafficSchool.com, SafeDriver.com, DetsCourse.com, DrugAndAlcoholCourse.com) and holds unrestricted statewide approval in all 67 Florida counties, a distinction that an estimated 32% of competitors lack. According to Florida DHSMV data, it has been ranked #1 by the State in student completions for 10 of the last 20 years and the last four years consecutively, with 112,000-132,000 annual completions and over 5 million customers served lifetime. Product pricing starts at $4.94 for BDI (with state assessment, provider processing, convenience, and ADLTS fees layered on), $29.95 for DETS/TLSAE, and bundles up to $69.95 for a Platinum Package.

The business model is direct-to-consumer, pay-as-you-go online course fees plus exam/testing pass-through and optional expedited certificate delivery. There are no disclosed enterprise contracts, no funding rounds, and no parent company. Growth is driven by state-mandated course requirements (most recently the DETS transition), paid search and remarketing on Google/Bing/AdRoll, organic social and content marketing, and partnerships with Shopper Approved for review collection. Founder-led and recognized with the Spirit of the Trooper Award (2007), Davis Productivity Award, and Honorary Lifetime Membership in the Florida Sheriff's Association.
