Y'all are just too much!!! The Hard Drive

, Janet, that was brilliant!!
There are several websites that offer defensive driving online for the state of Texas. The one I used is defensivedriving.com. Their site says that it is also accepted by other states. I'd check first before paying for and taking the course if your not from the Lone Star State. There are cheaper sites available, but I did not want to have problems since I waited kinda late to take the course, so I went for a quality site.
I would imagine that people would have developed online courses for other states as well.
For me this was definitely the easiest way to go. I just did not want to give up a Saturday or two evenings in a week to sit through a boring class with people I'm not too crazy about. There is usually one obnoxious person in every class. I try to be tolerant, but when you don't want to be there in the first place, it is very hard to maintain a pleasant attitude.
