I'm sensing that I'm not gonna get any replies for this because I'm sure the average tuba/euphonium driving record is absolutely spotless...but I need to do traffic school online or on DVD/video. There seem to be a lot of choices. Anyone have any recommendations?

A tuba player who has received a traffic ticket. I didn't know we had anyone in our midst who would have done something deserving of such a thing.

Jamie,
About 3 years ago, I got my first speeding ticket after driving for 40 years. (first time caught -- not first time speeding
)
I did the online driving school because it was the easiest for me at the time. I got through it in about 8 or 10 hours I think.

After I got out of the Army in February 1986, I had to drive from Fort Dix, New Jersey, to Riverside, California, very quickly to make it in time to start classes at California Baptist College for the Spring Semester.
My (now ex-) wife was pregnant and didn't feel like driving for any part of the trip. We had to go where there were lots of places to eat because we never knew when she might get hungry (she went through four boxes of white crackers in three days).
Anyway, we were making really good time. We had gone to Ciudad Juarez, across from El Paso, Texas, and I still had some pesos that were burning a hole in my pocket. So, when we got to Road Forks, New Mexico, after my wife got a burger and fries, we took Old US 80 to Douglas, Arizona, and then we could walk to Agua Prieta for lunch.
When we got to Agua Prieta, everything was closed except for a PIZZA PARLOR. Man, these were huge pizzas! We got a small one and it was the size of an extra-large pizza in the U.S. Sadly, we couldn't take the leftovers with us back to the car in Arizona.
As we drove back on Hwy. 80 back to I-10, there wasn't a car on the road. I was driving a 1971 Oldsmobile Delta 88, with a 440 V-8, a fast, quiet car.
I looked in my rearview mirror and saw a blue light bar. I looked down at the speedometer and it said I was doing 130 mph. It felt like 25!
I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that the cop was the Border Patrol.
Yes, he pulled me over. He asked to see my license, my wife's license, her Green Card (how did he know?), and inside my trunk.
Then he smiled and admonished, "Be careful, Mr. Long!"
And that was that!
