Traffic School Q&A for Denver
Will points come off my record after this course?
I took the defensive driving course for a Denver ticket. Will the points be removed from my Colorado driving record?
Hello Daniel, Thanks for reaching out. Colorado does not have a formal point-reduction program through the DMV the way New York or Nevada do — completing a defensive driving course in Colorado is voluntary on the driver's side. What this typically means: - The court may use your completion to reduce or dismiss the citation, depending on the judge - The Colorado DMV will keep the points unless the court specifically reduces the violation - Your insurance carrier may still offer a discount based on the certificate Call the Denver County Court clerk and ask whether the judge will accept the certificate as a condition of your case. We can resend the certificate to the court at any time. Colorado Defensive Driving Course Please let us know if you have any further questions!
