If you have been charged with a minor traffic violation in Judicial District 29b (Henderson, Polk and Transylvania counties) you may elect to take this course. You must appear in court FIRST to get permission from the District Attorney to take this course. Please bring your permission form and citation with you to register. Fee is $50 for 4 hour class and $75 for 8 hour class.
Please note:
Prepayment is required by the registration deadline or you will be dropped from the class and be required to reschedule at a later date.
