Defensive Driving School Options
If you have been charged with an offense indicated with an asterisk (*) in the chart above, you may be eligible to have your case dismissed upon completion of a Defensive Driving course and payment of court costs. This will allow you to avoid a court appearance and will prevent the accrual of points assessed against your Alabama Driver’s License as a result of this offense. To qualify for Driving School, you must
- Be charged with an offense eligible for Driving School
- NO CDL
- Have never been arrested for DUI, and
- Be approved for Driving School by the Court.
To determine your eligibility for the Defensive Driving course, you must go to the ONLINE TRAFFIC RESOLUTION website at the link above and request defensive driving school.
If you are approved for Defensive Driving your case may be dismissed upon payment of court costs after your completion of driving school. If you are NOT eligible for driving school, you may still avoid a court appearance by following the instructions at the top of this page.
