The Defensive Driving Program provides individuals who have received a minor traffic ticket an opportunity to attend a driver education class and have one eligible charge dismissed without appearing in court. Driving skills and knowledge of rules of the road can be improved by attending a DDP class.
Eligibility
- The program can be attended only once within a two-year period from violation date to violation date.
- The traffic ticket is for a minor moving violation, including photo radar violations.
- The charge did not result from an accident where a death or serious physical injury was involved.
- The option of attending a DDP class is void after the arraignment date.
- The DDP class must be completed at least 5 working days prior to your court date.
- The violator does not hold a commercial driver license (CDL).
