Midland Defensive Driving

How it works
Our Midland defensive driving course gives drivers in Midland and Midland County a fast and convenient way to dismiss eligible traffic tickets and earn insurance discounts. Comedy Safe Driver is fully approved by the Texas Department of Licensing & Regulation (TDLR), and our online course is accepted by many local courts throughout West Texas.
Why Midland Drivers Take Defensive Driving
Midland is one of the busiest driving areas in the Permian Basin, with constant oilfield traffic, US-191 commuters, and congestion along Loop 250 and Andrews Highway. Even skilled drivers can end up with a citation. Our defensive driving course helps you:
- ✔ Dismiss an eligible traffic ticket (with court approval)
- ✔ Prevent points from appearing on your Texas driving record
- ✔ Qualify for an insurance premium discount
- ✔ Improve driving habits for Midland and West Texas roads
Because the course is 100% online, you can complete it anytime — from home, work, or on the road.
How Ticket Dismissal Works in Midland
Most tickets in the area are handled by the Midland Municipal Court or Midland County Justice of the Peace courts. Before you take a defensive driving course for ticket dismissal, you must get permission from the court listed on your citation.
Once approved, the process is simple:
- Register for our Texas Defensive Driving course.
- Complete the six-hour online course at your own pace — log in and out anytime.
- Receive your completion certificate (and optional driving record if needed).
- Submit your documents to the court before your due date.
