Yes, and Virginia is unusual in that the answer holds through every door you might enter.
The headline trade is the court-permitted one. Where a Virginia court allows the clinic to resolve a ticket, a course costing $39 to $75 stands against roughly $1,707 of three-year insurance exposure at ceiling, up to roughly a 24x return, plus whatever the court does with the fine. That version depends on the court's discretion, which makes the clerk conversation the first move, as everywhere.
But Virginia's distinctive value is that the fallback is genuinely good. Miss the court version entirely and the voluntary clinic still pays: up to 5 safe driving points, the most generous credit in the country, restoring a battered balance once every 24 months, or the insurance-discount track if your record is clean and you'd rather chip the premium. Eight hours and under $75 for either is solid value on its own terms, not a consolation prize. Even the involuntary version, when the DMV orders you in, is worth it in the bluntest sense: it's the price of keeping your license.
The only way to make Virginia's clinic not worth it is to fumble the enrollment choice, buying points you don't need or a discount you can't use. Decide which benefit you're there for before checkout, because that decision is final per attendance.
