Anybody ever done the home traffic school vids?? Need help!

[UCLA02]

My wife is watching the traffic school videos (DVDs) she rented from Blockbuster. They are from www.takehome.com.

She has to watch a section that is up to an hour and a half long, then go online and answer 3 stupid questions related to the section. For an hour and a half of info, they ask the most random stuff, like "what side of the car did Joe get in?" There are also legit questions, but have a lot to do with statistics that are impossible to remember when given in large quantities. Each question online must be answered within 45 seconds, so there's no going back to the DVD to check for the answer.

So far she is failing (which will be a waste of about $70), so I'm having to watch them with her, hoping one of us will catch what info they want an hour later.

Not a fun Sat night/Sun morn. Anyway, I'm wondering if anybody has taken this course and if there are any hints or shortcuts (or answers) ot there.

2. I took an online course, no vids

Hey, Bruin fan here too, BTW.

I got a ticket in Pasadena in March. I signed up for traffic school and did it on line. Pretty easy. You get 60 days to complete the course, which was like seven or eight sections, then a final quiz.

There are mini-tests after you read each section. If you miss a question on the mini-tests, they let you go back and try again. Sometimes the back button to look up answers would work, sometimes no.

I passed the final test on the first try, so I don't know what happens if you don't. If you have a copy of the CA Driver handbook (I'm assuming you're here in Cali), keep that hand during the quiz too.

All in all, took me like half a day, total. (you can start and stop at your leisure througout the 60 days if you want) It was an extra $50 or so, but it will keep the point off my license.

Good luck!
