  1. Is this course approved for ticket dismissals and insurance discounts?

    Yes. DefensiveDriving.com is approved by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation and is accepted by all courts in Texas to dismiss traffic tickets and lower insurance rates by up to 10%. (Be sure to ask your Insurance Provider for details). If you are taking the course outside the state of Texas, ask your court and/or insurance company if they will accept a 6-hour driving safety course approved by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.

  2. How long does it take to complete the course?

    All courses approved by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation take 6 hours to complete. While some students choose to complete the course all in one sitting, you may choose to complete the course a little at a time, logging on and off the course around your schedule. The course will automatically keep track of your progress, so when you log back into the course, you will pick up where you left off. You have up to 90 days to complete the entire course.

  3. How do I receive a Certificate of Completion?

    After completing the course, you will receive a State issued Certificate of Completion via US Mail within 7-10 business days. If you prefer, overnight delivery via FedEx is available for $25.00. To receive your Certificate the following business day, you must complete the course by 5:00 pm. The State issued Certificate of Completion is a multi-part perforated mailer that contains one "court" copy and one "insurance" copy. For ticket dismissals, sign the court copy and forward it to the court per their instructions. For insurance discounts of up to 10%, submit the insurance copy to your insurance company.
