Completing our driver safety (or defensive driving) course online offers the following benefits:

  1. Prevents license suspension and keeps points off your record: Completing the course helps avoid accumulating points that could lead to license suspension and surcharges from the Texas DPS.

  2. Protects your insurance rates: Avoid higher premiums by keeping points off your record, as too many points label you as a high-risk driver.

  3. Lowers insurance premiums: Even without a ticket, completing the course could qualify you for a 10% discount on your insurance for up to 3 years.

  4. Improves driving skills: Learn defensive driving techniques to stay safe and anticipate other drivers' actions.
