Solution -
If the 'Course Status' page doesn't reflect your progress throughout the course, first try clicking the Refresh or Reload button on your browser. If this doesn't work, please log off and end your connection to the Internet.

This should refresh your online traffic school session and reflect your progress.

Payment Issue
Problem - I have paid for the course, but the site is not reflecting my payment and giving me access to the final exam.

Solution -

• If you have paid for the traffic school or drivers education course online with a credit card and your payment was accepted successfully, you will be sent a payment confirmation by email with an Order ID#. You will also be taken to a screen that will show the Order ID# on screen when payment has been accepted. If the 'Course Status' page does not reflect your payment, please log off and end your connection to the Internet. Connect back on to the Internet and log back into and click on re-enter course from the navigation bar. This should refresh your session and reflect your payment.

• If you have paid for your online course by telephone with a credit card, please note that final exam access is given during normal business hours and may take some time pending credit card authorization. You will receive a payment confirmation email when your credit card has been processed and you have been granted access to the final exam.

Problem - I have entered my credit card information into the payment page and clicked the submit button, but nothing is happening.

Solution -
Be Patient! Due to Internet traffic, it sometimes may take 1-2 minutes for credit card authorizations to be completed and processed. This is not unusual. Please wait until your browser screen prompts you to continue. Do not click on the payment button more than one time because your credit card may be charged for each click. UVO'S TRAFFIC SCHOOL has taken the necessary steps to curb this problem from occurring, but clicking the payment button multiple times can trigger this. If the page seems to be stuck and not responding, please log off and end your connection to the Internet. Connect back on to the Internet and log back into and click on Student Login from the navigation bar. This should refresh your session and reflect your payment. If you have paid, but not received the payment confirmation email nor your Order ID# then the payment was not accepted and you must try again.

Re-Enter Course
How do I continue an online course already in progress?

When you want to re-enter a course in progress, simply go to our homepage at UVO'S TRAFFIC SCHOOL and click on the Student Login button on the navigation bar. For access to the online traffic school course, you will be prompted to enter your driver's license number and email address used during registration.

Problem - I am entering my email address into the registration page and it is telling me that my email address is invalid.

Solution- Please make sure that you are entering a valid email address. When entering your email address be sure that you are not entering any spaces between letters. Also, do not put the letters 'www.' before your email address. You must also enter the '@' (at) symbol after your username followed by .com, .net, or .org. Lastly, some email addresses have an '_' (underscore) symbol, this is located on your keyboard to the right of the '0' (zero) key by pressing the shift key and '-' (minus) key at the same time.

Problem - I am trying to re-enter the course, but when I enter my login information, the site says that I am not registered.

Solution - Make sure that the URL at the top of the screen reads exactly as follows: https://uvostrafficschool.com/.

Make sure that you originally registered with UVO'S TRAFFIC SCHOOL. It is our policy to send confirmation emails to you when you register/enroll for the online course, make a payment, and complete the program. Check your email box for these confirmation emails to ensure that you have contacted the correct company. If you do not have a confirmation email from UVO'S TRAFFIC SCHOOL, you have registered with another company.

If you are positive that you have registered with UVO'S TRAFFIC SCHOOL, but the login/re-enter procedure is not working, it is because you are entering either your driver's license number and/or email address different from what you originally registered with. You will need to re-enter your information exactly as you registered including all letters, numbers, expiration dates, spaces in driver's license, etc. so long as you entered it during registration. The confirmation email that is sent when you enroll will have your information listed for re-entry purposes. Please refer to this email for assistance.

A common error when trying to re-enter your course is typing the letter 'O or o' instead of the number '0' (zero) or vice-versa for the driver's license # or e-mail address. When typing in your driver's license # or e-mail address, this re-entering function is not case sensitive (you may replace a lower case 'o' with a capitol 'O'), but it will not let you substitute a letter 'O or o' for the number zero '0'.

I'm using an iPad/iPhone and I am having trouble logging into my course.

Go to the Settings option on your devise. Under Settings select "Safari" and then turn OFF private browsing. After you do this return to UVO'S TRAFFIC SCHOOL Course Login. You may need to refresh the page. You should now be able to login to your course.
