discount, or needs some kind of driving course for a job requirement
Drivers Ed is a course for someone who is trying to get their license.

Contact their court or review their ticket
How can students find out what their court is? Why is this important?
It's on their ticket/traffic citation. This is important for students taking DD to dismiss a
ticket because we need to put this info on their Certificate of Completion. They can be
turned away by the court if the incorrect court name is on the certificate.

course?
That depends on the court. The student needs to contact the court in the other state and
see if they'll accept a Texas-approved Defensive Driving course.

course?
That depends on the court. The student needs to contact the court and see if they'll be
