Did you know that injuries are obtained in one out of five vehicle crashes; that in every 12 minutes someone dies from a vehicle crash?

In order to reduce the number of accidents and crashes, the Department of Public Safety requires that defensive driving course be taken when a number of motor vehicle violations are made. This is especially true in the state of Texas where defensive driving courses are compulsory by court.

In the state of Texas, a law was passed to establish points to violations that a driver makes. With the certain points assigned come the fines that you need to pay.

Defensive driving courses are taken so that drivers can review the rules of the road and the techniques in driving so that dangerous situations are avoided. Texas defensive driving online courses allow you to clear your driving record, bring down your insurance rates and dismiss your traffic ticket.

In the past, the driver would need to locate a school, include it in their daily schedule and spend time traveling to and from the school. With taking an online defensive driving course, you get rid of all these hassles.

There are courses which, are purchased via the Internet, and the course is taken online. There are other online defensive driving courses that send you a DVD or VCR of the course. The course itself is in the DVD that you watch; during the course a series of questions or tests are given which you have to answer using the Internet. At the end of the course, you take the final test and simply return the DVD to the store by mail. They then provide you the certification of completion in return by mail or overnight courier service. This is not as convenient compared to typical online defensive driving courses.

Online defensive driving courses allow you to take the course and exam on line. The questions are given and answers must be given within a certain timeframe. This is done to prevent the person taking the exam from asking someone else in the room for the answer. Once the course and exam are completed, you get to print your certification, or it is sent via email.

Whichever type of online defensive driving course you take, you should remember that taking the course is better than having to pay for your violations because it also clears your record and reduces your insurance rate by 10-20%.
