Should I go to traffic school in CA?

I accidentally went by a stop sign but thankfully I can still take traffic school. I have a clean record

Should I even do it? I feel a stop sign ticket shouldn't increase my insurance right? Technically non-moving violation (jk)

After doing a quick search, I've come across one called Best Online Traffic School (frankly they all say best or cheapest LOL).

Any experiences?

Rolling a "Stop" sign isn't a moving violation? Really?

Fight the ticket first then go to traffic school if you can't get it dismissed.

I didn't see the (jk), it was early. We used to explain to people who asked the difference between slowing down and stopping.....I'll take out my baton and start hitting you, do you want me to slow down or stop?

Goto school otherwise all Insurances will know along with the man. The man doesn't like repeat offenders.

If you fight it you usually waive the right to school.

Not familiar with traffic laws in California, so could you explain this traffic school situation?

Here in the great north once the ticket is on your record it takes 3 years before it is gone.

Yes, take traffic school so the violation is removed from your record. Any moving violation is a point and will show on your record and can affect rates.
