Part of the release process for a speeding ticket (and other traffic violations) is the successful completion of a state-approved Texas safe driving course (also known as a defensive driving course). In most cases, taking a safe driving course will prevent the violation (and associated points) from sticking to your ticket to have your ticket rejected. This is important to avoid future expenses like insurance increases, DPS surcharges, etc. If your ticket is dismissed through this process, it does not mean you avoid the ticket entirely, as you will likely still have to pay a court/dismissal fee. When you submit the withdrawal request, you have 90 days to complete the course and submit the certificate of completion to avoid an additional penalty. If you miss the deadline, the fine will be added to your files and, in some cases, a court order may also be issued.
Taking a defensive driving course is a simple and smart way to keep your driving record clean, and it’s also a great way to brush up on your driving skills. Another added benefit is that many auto insurance providers offer discounts for taking the course. You’ll learn about Texas traffic laws and how to anticipate road hazards while building confidence in your driving skills.
