  • Defensive Driving Online

    Dismiss Your Traffic Ticket - Texas drivers who have been court ordered to attend 6-hour TEA approved defensive driving can take their course online. Our State of Texas approved course provides drivers with ticket dismissal and insurance benefits. This course fulfills all State requirements to dismiss a Texas speeding ticket or any other moving violation. You will receive a completion certificate to turn in to the Texas court, judge, or magistrate who ordered you to take a defensive driving class. More Video and Animations, Less Reading – Our course features more videos, animations and graphics to keep students interested in learning. We have raised the bar for interactive education by actually showing defensive driving maneuvers and crash scenarios rather than just talking about them. Many other online defensive driving courses are 100% reading. Plus...the course is certainly more beneficial than listening to a couple of comedians at an all-you-can-eat buffet. Also, you can take this course around your busy schedule. You can start and stop the online course as you wish. You can take the entire course in 6 hours or take your time and complete the course over several days. Its all up to you!!!
