A few days after getting cited, most courts will have it in their system and can let you know whether or not you are eligible to take courses for defensive driving in Texas. However, you may not need to contact the court if you review the following general eligibility criteria.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How do you know if you are eligible to take the Texas Defensive Driving course?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Citation<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Before enrolling in a defensive driving course, the first thing to verify is whether your citation is eligible for dismissal. The court will generally notify you if your ticket can be dismissed. The ticket itself, as well as any relevant paperwork, might provide instructions for clearing it from your driving record. If you do not receive a notice or see instructions on taking Texas defensive driving courses, you may contact the court where the ticket was issued.<\/p>\n<p>In Texas, certain requirements must be met to be able to dismiss a traffic citation:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>You received your traffic citation while driving a non-commercial vehicle.<\/li>\n<li>You haven\u2019t completed a defensive driving course in Texas in the past year before you got your ticket.<\/li>\n<li>You have a valid Texas driver\u2019s license.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019ve entered a \u201cno contest\u201d plea. Remember that you cannot take the Texas driver safety course if you plead \u201cnot guilty.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>You received a speeding ticket for driving less than 25 mph over the speed limit.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If you are eligible to take a Texas defensive driving class, you must submit your certificate of completion by the date of your court hearing (if required) to have the citation dismissed. Remember that you may be required to pay a fee for your citation being dismissed.<\/p>\n<p><em>Driver\u2019s License<\/em><br \/>\nBefore taking a defensive driving course, you must present a driver\u2019s license or identification number. This will enable the court to ensure that your completion certificate is correct. Note that a commercial driver\u2019s license will not be accepted in this case.<\/p>\n<p>You may use your out-of-state driver\u2019s license or I.D. number to enroll in this course if you do not have a state driver\u2019s license. Please remember that defensive driving course instructors may want additional information.<\/p>\n<p>For ticket dismissal, points off your license, and car insurance discounts, Tu <strong>Escuelita de Manejo<\/strong> offers defensive driving courses.
