The department of motor vehicles recommends taking a Traffic Collision Avoidance course for safety and potential insurance discounts. In the case of a collision, an officer will generally assign the fault to one or more of the drivers that will result in a citation. To prevent the points from being added to your driving record (which can eventually result in the suspension of your license).
