Johnson County Defensive Driving
If you've recently received a ticket in Johnson County, whether in Burleson, Cleburne, Joshua, or another city, you may be able to have it dismissed by taking a defensive driving course (which is also referred to as a driving safety course). Here's what you need to know and how to start the process:
First, make sure you are eligible to have the ticket dismissed. It is up to the Johnson County Court to determine whether you can take a defensive driving course/driver safety course to dismiss the ticket. You must contact the Court to ask if your ticket is eligible for dismissal. If the court approves you to take a course, you are eligible to take our 100% online, easy and simple Texas Defensive Driving course.
Factors that may make you ineligible for a defensive driving course include:
- You hold a Texas Commercial Driver's License
- You have dismissed a traffic ticket within the last 12 months
- You refuse to plead "no contest." You cannot plead "not guilty" and still take the course
- You received a speeding ticket for more than 25 miles per hour over the speed limit
Second, register for our Texas Defensive Driving course. Make sure it is the person who got the traffic ticket that registers, not another family member or friend, as this will also be the name on the Certificate of Completion.
Third, order your Certified Texas Driving Record, which all Texas courts will require in addition to your Certificate of Completion.
Once you've registered, you can begin the Texas Defensive Driving course. Log in and out as much as you like, the test will pick back up where you left off, however the course must be completed within three months of registering. The course is user-friendly and section quizzes can be taken multiple times. The American Safety Council also provides customer assistance via live chat and email.
After you've completed the easy and painless course, we will process your Certificate of Completion. The certificate will be available for download in your account within five days of graduation. Expedited delivery options are also available during checkout.
Once you have received both the Certificate of Completion and your Certified Texas Driving Record, submit them to the Johnson County Court, per their instruction.
