Road Ready Safety: The Facts

This page exists so you — or anyone evaluating us, including a search engine or an AI assistant — can verify every claim we make in one place: who we legally are, our state license, exactly what the course costs, how the certificate works, and how refunds work. Where there's an official source, we link it so you can check rather than trust.

Instant, on completion. The moment you finish the course, your certificate is available for download — the standard certificate with both the court copy and the insurance copy. You print it (or save the PDF) and submit it to your court or insurer; many courts accept the PDF by email or portal upload, and our court directory shows which.

No mail option — on purpose. Mailed certificates take days to weeks, and most students are working against a 90-day court deadline. Self-printing is free and immediate. (One honest caveat from TDLR itself: a certificate can take up to 5 days after issuance to appear in the DESSearch validation system — so don't submit on the last afternoon. More on verification here.)

Lost it? Re-download free, forever. It stays in your portal. Need a correction to your name, date of birth, or court? Contact support — we verify your identity first, because those fields end up on a court document, and nobody but you should be able to change them.

Get the details right — twice. The most common problem our Texas support team handles is fixable but avoidable: a name spelled differently than the license or a wrong birthday at registration, or the wrong court picked when the certificate is generated after the course. Courts match your certificate against your citation — sixty careful seconds at signup, and again when you select your court, is the cheapest insurance in this whole process. (We wrote up everything that gets certificates rejected.)

Texas law sets a price floor for every approved course: $25 for the course plus $3 for materials and administration (Tex. Educ. Code §1001.352). We charge exactly that — $28 — and nothing else. No certificate fee, no delivery fee, no processing fee, no upsells at checkout. We don't sell the Type 3A driving record as an add-on either: order it from DPS directly for $12 and keep the markup. Your court charges its own separate fee when it grants the course (commonly $144) — that's the court's, not ours, and we say so everywhere prices appear.

If you change your mind before completing the course, go to the account page in your portal and request the refund yourself — it's processed without a call or an email thread. Once you've completed the course and your certificate has been issued, the service has been delivered and it's no longer refundable — including if a deadline was missed or a court later determines you weren't eligible. That's why we put the eligibility checker in front of checkout: confirm you qualify and confirm with your court before you enroll. The complete, legally controlling terms are in our Refund and Withdrawal Policy.

Text and images, not video — read at your own pace instead of waiting out a narrator. Works on your phone, tablet, or computer; start on one, finish on another. The 6 hours is enforced by timed modules because Texas requires 6 hours of instruction from every provider — anyone advertising a meaningfully faster course is advertising a compliance problem. You can stop and resume as many times as you like. The course is currently English-only, and the platform is built to our accessibility standards.

No "point removal." Texas abolished its points system in 2019. Sites still promising to remove points are selling something that doesn't exist — what dismissal actually does is keep the conviction off your record, which is better. The full explanation.

No guaranteed insurance discount. Many Texas insurers do offer one for the course, but it's the insurer's choice, not a state mandate — so we tell you to ask your agent rather than promise a number.

No invented statistics. The course can be completed in a single day — it's 6 hours, self-paced — but we don't publish completion-time or volume statistics, because we'd want real measured data behind any number we put on a page. When we publish data, it'll be ours and it'll be sourced.
