Acquiring Your Texas Driving Records
Need to order a copy of your driving record?
After you have obtained permission from the court to take a Texas Defensive Driving Class, you have 90 days to complete the course. In addition to the state approved defensive driving course completion, you may also be required to obtain a copy of your Public Texas Driving Record. You would then turn that record in with your completion certificate from Funny Bone Comedy Defensive Driving School.
You can either:
A: Order your driving record online through the state driving record website at www.TexasOnline.com.
(You need a credit card or debit card to do it this way.)
or B: Order your driving record by U.S. Mail from the Texas Department of Public Safety
Want to go old school?
Order your driving record by "snail" mail at this address:
Texas Department of Public Safety
Driver Records Bureau
P.O. Box 149246
Austin, Texas 78714-9246
Most Texas courts require Driving Record Number 3A, but check with your precinct.
Why do I need to do this anyway?
State law says you can only take a defensive driving course once per year to dismiss a ticket. Your driving record will serve as proof of your history.
Can I get the driving record through Funny Bone?
No, Sorry, Funnybone cannot acquire the driving record for you.
