How long is the Mississippi course?
How many hours is the defensive driving course for a Jackson ticket?
Hello Greg, Mississippi does not set a uniform statewide course length — the requirement depends on the court that issued the ticket. Most courts in Hinds County accept a 4-hour online defensive driving course. To confirm exactly: - Call the Jackson Municipal Court clerk and ask the required course length - Ask whether they require an in-person class or accept an online option - Note any deadline they impose Once you confirm, you can enroll on our site and the course can be completed in one sitting if needed. The certificate is sent to you and to the court the same business day you pass. Mississippi Defensive Driving Course Please let us know if you have any further questions!
