What Is Virginia RADEP?

RADEP stands for Reckless & Aggressive Driver Education Program. It is traffic-safety education focused on behaviors and decisions associated with reckless and aggressive driving.

A court, attorney, or other referring authority may instruct a driver to complete RADEP in connection with a traffic matter. The exact requirement can vary, so the instructions for your individual situation control which course format you should choose.

What This 12-Hour Online Course Does

This page is for the complete 12-hour online RADEP option. It is different from both the 4-Hour Supplemental RADEP course and the 12-Hour Classroom RADEP pathway.

After successfully completing the full online program, the student receives a RADEP completion certificate for use with the appropriate referring authority.
