Top Court-Assigned Defensive Driving

If you've gotten a ticket and been ordered to go to driver improvement school, check out the class offered by Oklahoma Safety Council, in conjunction with the State of Oklahoma Court System. This eight-hour online class makes fulfilling the requirement relatively painless. The class isn't available to the general public.

Alternatively, call the State Department of Public Safety at (405) 425-2424 and ask for the contact information to the nearest driver improvement school, or check with the court listed on your infraction ticket.

If you're looking to take a defensive driving class but haven't been ordered to do so by a court, see our Defensive Driving article.

Top Ticket Dismissal and Point Reduction

By completing a state-approved driver improvement program, you may receive two points off your license and keep the ticket off your record (depending on its severity).

However, you may only complete the program once every 24 months, and the points won't be removed if you are ordered to attend the class by a court order for serious traffic violations.

Costs

Online court-ordered classes are $32.95.
Traffic fines are payable separately, to the court.
