driving safety/defensive driving course

Driving safety courses—also known as defensive driving or traffic school—are designed to improve a driver’s knowledge, awareness, and attitude toward driving a motor vehicle. Laws vary from state to state but in many states a driver who has been issued a traffic ticket or citation may have the ticket or citation dismissed upon successful completion of a driving safety course—whether online or in person.

In Oklahoma, driving safety courses, often referred to as defensive driving or traffic school, serve as educational tools to enhance a driver's understanding and behavior on the road. State regulations allow for the dismissal of a traffic ticket or citation if the driver successfully completes a state-approved driving safety course. The option to take such a course for ticket dismissal is typically offered at the discretion of the court handling the traffic violation. Drivers may choose between online or in-person courses, but it's important to ensure that the course is recognized by the state of Oklahoma. Additionally, eligibility to use a driving safety course for ticket dismissal may depend on the driver's traffic citation history and the nature of the offense. It's advisable for drivers to check with the court or an attorney to understand their options and the specific requirements they must meet to have their ticket dismissed through a driving safety course.
