Courses must be attended within 6 months of notification. If the courses are attended, the number of points is reduced by 2 points. If the courses are not attended, the number of demerit points is increased by 2 points.

Courses on road safety issues are organized by the CSDD (registration by phone 67025791), they take place for 2 days (Saturdays). The fee for road safety courses is 50,02 euros. Payment can be made to e-CSDD, CSDD cash desk, Latvijas pasts or by transfer to the CSDD account, indicating the notification No.
