Can I take this for my Idaho Falls ticket?
I got a speeding ticket in Idaho Falls. Can I take your online defensive driving course to handle it?
Hello Megan, In Idaho, eligibility for course-based ticket resolution is set by the court that issued the citation rather than the state. Before enrolling: - Call the Bonneville County District Court and ask whether they accept a completed defensive driving course to dismiss or reduce the ticket - Ask whether they require an in-person class or whether the online option is accepted - Note any deadline they set for completion If the court accepts the online option, you can enroll right away and finish at your own pace. We send completion to the court the same business day you pass. Idaho Defensive Driving Course Please let us know if you have any further questions!
