Hello Susan, Thanks for the question. In Arkansas, completing a defensive driving course typically does not erase a citation from your driving record, but it does keep additional points from being added and can prevent a license suspension. A few specifics: - The citation itself remains on your record per Arkansas Office of Driver Services rules - Points associated with the violation may be reduced or held, depending on the court's order - Insurance companies still see the citation on the record, even if points are minimized To confirm your specific outcome, request a copy of your driving record from the Arkansas OMV after the court closes the case.

Hello David, We can absolutely help. The course itself does not have a hard deadline on our side — you have unlimited access once you enroll — but the court does. To request a court extension: - Call the Pulaski County District Court clerk and ask for a continuance to complete traffic school - Most courts grant a short extension if you ask before the original due date - Once the new date is set, write it down — completion must post before that day Our course can be finished in a single sitting if needed, and the certificate transmits to the court the same business day you pass.
