The court says that I need to complete a driver safety course. Is that the same thing as defensive driving?

Yes they are one in the same. Texas law and many courts refer to driver safety courses, but most of the general population know them as defensive driving courses.

Will my court accept this course?

Yes. Our Texas defensive driving course is approved by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR), course provider number CP-090—and TDLR approval is what makes it acceptable by all Texas courts for ticket dismissal. If your court has any special instructions, follow those when you submit your certificate.

Am I eligible to dismiss my ticket with this course?

Eligibility is decided by the court, not by us. First, tell the court you intend to take a defensive driving (driver safety) course, pay any required court fee, and get permission to complete it—courts typically allow about 90 days to finish and submit your certificate. If you took a course for another ticket in the past 12 months, that may affect your eligibility, but not always. You also do not need a Texas driver license: Texas courts often give out-of-state drivers permission so the ticket stays off their home state driving record.

How much does the course cost?

Our Texas defensive driving online course is $25. This is the lowest price allowed by State Law. No state approved course provider may offer a course for a ticket at less than $25. Your completion certificate is included free and available as an instant PDF download the moment you finish.

How long is the course?

The course takes six hours to complete, which is required by Texas Law. Each page in the course has a timer that is set based on the amount of text or video on the page. However, keep in mind that our online course provides you with the flexibility to log in and out as your schedule allows and your progress is automatically saved. So you don’t have to take the course all in one sitting.

How long will it take to get my certificate?

Immediately. As soon as you complete and pass the course, your certificate is prepared as a PDF you can download, print, or save — there is nothing to wait for and no extra charge.

You then turn it in to the court, your insurance company, or your employer, depending on why you took the course.

Is there a test?

No. There is no final exam or test. However, there are short multiple choice quizzes at the end of each unit. You get three attempts to get a passing score (70%) per unit quiz.

What if I don't pass?

You can fail the course by missing identity validation questions or by not passing the unit quizzes. If that happens, state rules require you to start the course over—but we don't require you to pay again.

Can this course lower my insurance premium?

Many Texas insurance companies offer a discount to drivers who voluntarily complete a state approved defensive driving course. Check with your insurance provider—your completion certificate is usually all they need.

The court says I need a certified copy of my Texas driving record. Can I order that from you?

Yes! When you go through the course registration process you will have the opportunity to request that we order a certified 3A copy of your Texas Driving Record ($19.95). You will also have the option at the conclusion of the course.

Your record is emailed to you within one business day of completing the course—typically sooner. We process driving records at 10AM, 1PM, and 4PM CST each business day.
