New California Laws for 2013

A new year brings new traffic laws to California. Several new laws took effect on Jan. 1, 2013. As a provider of traffic violator school (TVS) instruction, you should familiarize yourself with these changes so you can provide proper education and assistance to your students.

Internet Curriculum Update

As your curriculum provider, Traffic Safety Consultants, Inc., (TSC) has already updated the Internet-based curriculum, and your students are using it now. You need to do nothing further.

Booklet Curriculum Update

Those of you who are offering the home study booklet must ensure that you are providing students with updated curriculum materials. Download from the CA Course Provider Administration website the latest final exam forms and answer keys, available now, and begin using those immediately.

The copyright notice is at the
bottom of the Table of Contents page.
The next order of books that you receive from TSC will be the latest edition. You may continue to use "old" booklets from your inventory. However, if the bottom of the Table of Contents page of a book that you are sending to a student does not have a 2013 copyright (see example picture), you must include a "new laws insert" (available for download from the CA Course Provider Administration website) in the packet.

Make sure that you ship the latest home study booklets (or inserts) and testing materials, as you will be responsible for teaching/testing students on this new material!
