How the California Traffic School Bond Works
A California traffic school bond is required of traffic violator school operators offering remote instruction. It ensures the school will properly report student completions and adhere to state-mandated educational standards.
The surety bond creates a three-party agreement that guarantees compliance:
- Principal: Traffic school provider (home study or internet-based)
- Obligee: California Department of Motor Vehicles
- Surety: Bonding company
If a student or regulatory body suffers financial harm due to a provider’s violation of the law, a claim may be filed against the bond. The surety company will investigate the claim and, if valid, compensate the affected party up to the bond amount. The bonded provider must then reimburse the surety for any paid claims.
