The Defensive Driver Course/Citation Dismissal Program began in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina on July 1, 1989 as a joint effort between the court system and the Safety and Health Council of North Carolina, a non-profit safety educational association and statewide chapter of the National Safety Council. Based on information from the Safety and Health Council, the goal of this program is to reduce traffic crashes by providing the minor traffic violator with an educational experience to improve their attitudes toward safe driving while they learn better driving habits. Under this program, drivers who are stopped by traffic officers and are cited for 1 of 46 different minor violations are eligible to complete the National Safety Council's four-hour defensive driving course. Upon successful completion, the charge will be dismissed and no court appearance is required, no fine is levied, and no driver's license points (or record of any conviction) is entered into the driver's record. The report describes this program.
