How to Take an Online Defensive Driving Course in Oklahoma
While the state of Oklahoma will reward safe drivers with reduced points for going violation-free for 1-3 years, chances are you need to get those points erased much faster than that. That’s why the state also accepts Defensive Driving courses as a means of point reduction. If you’re saddled with a traffic ticket, or you’ve accumulated a large amount of points on your record, you can remove 2 of those points by refreshing your safe driving skills.
To give you a head start on the process, we’ve created a list of the steps you need to take in order to earn that 2-point reduction. By following this guide, you’ll be fully prepared to meet your traffic ticket head on, and clear your driving record for good.
How to Reduce 2 Points From Your Driving Record
- Contact your court and request permission to attend a defensive driving course.

- Enroll in and complete your I Drive Safely Oklahoma defensive driving course.
You may only complete this course once every 2 years to remove points from your license.
- Submit your completion certificate to your court.
I Drive Safely will send you a certificate of completion, which you are then responsible for delivering to your court. The court may have given you a deadline by which to complete and submit your course; if you’re doing so voluntarily, you will likely have greater leeway.

Your court will submit your completion to the DPS, and it will take them a few weeks to process your point reduction. You should then check your Oklahoma driving record to ensure that you have received a 2-point credit for completing your course.
