Regardless of the different bond amounts required, the purpose of your Illinois driver school training bond is the same.
The bond is a financial guarantee that a driver school will comply with all laws and statutes in the regulation of their professional conduct.
As such such, the bond’s purpose is not a guarantee for the driver school, but rather it is a financial guarantee for students of the driver school.
The bond’s existence ensures that should a driver school fail in its duties related to legal statutes, a student is allowed to file against the bond and be compensated if they are able to demonstrate financial harm.
But the bond is also not an insurance policy.
What that means is that should a surety pay a claim on your driver school bond, you are legally obligated to reimburse the surety for all cost, fees, and sums in the settlement of a claim.
The premium for the driver school bond is reflective of the amount required, information provided on an application, and a standard credit check.
Applicants with good credit may pay as little as 1% for the bond’s amount.
Once issued, the bond is active for one year, and must be renewed on an annual basis.
The timely renewal of your surety bond helps to keep you in good graces with the state of Illinois.
A failure or lapse in bond coverage may cause the state to suspend your driver school operations until the lapse is cured.
