| No. As with most penalties and fines they are nondeductible.

| Agreed.....would be against public policy to give someone a tax benefit for their own illegal acts.

| What about "traffic school"? Is that education for a outside sales person who drives 25,000 business miles a year?

| I would think that traffic school that is taken voluntarily might qualify. Traffic school that is required as a result of a law violation is another story however.
