How can I reduce my demerits in Alberta?

To reduce the number of demerits on your driving record you can participate in a Defensive Driving Course or a Professional Driver Improvement Course. To avoid a demerit driving suspension, the course must be completed prior to the conviction date of the driving offence which caused your demerit suspension.
