Connecticut Online Operator Retraining Program (ORP)

About the Safety Driving Program

Motorists must attend if they:

• are 24 or younger with two convictions involving either moving or suspension violations
• are 25 or older with three convictions involving either moving or suspension violations
• have been convicted of traveling faster than 75 mph in a highway work zone
• are a driver of a commercial motor vehicle who is convicted of traveling faster than 65 mph in a highway work zone

Failure to attend a retraining class will result in driver’s license suspension. If the license is suspended, removal of the suspension will occur only after the DMV receives confirmation from NSC that you have completed the course.

Please complete the online class at least two weeks prior to your effective date of suspension to allow time for processing to CT DMV.

National Safety Council is not responsible for drivers completing the incorrect program.  After clicking New Student, please verify your information is correct on the registration screen before proceeding to take the course.
