Are Defensive Driving Courses "Pausable?"
By taking defensive driving online, you can pause your course, logging in and out as often as you like. Although the course is still six hours long in the virtual world, you have the freedom to jump back to the real world as often and for as long as you’d like. In addition, the ability to pause your defensive driving course offers you the flexibility of completing it at your own place and at your own pace.
How Long is a Texas Defensive Driving Course?
State law requires that a defensive driving course be six hours in length. This is why taking a course you can take a piece at a time makes so much sense.
The state and educational specialists understand that the brain can only absorb as much as the backside can endure. So whether the course is taken online or in a classroom, a 6-hour driver safety course does have one hour of breaks built in. But sometimes, even that is not enough because, life. To me, this gives online a big advantage over a classroom course. At the very least, you’ll never have to raise your hand and ask an instructor’s permission to run to the potty!
Can I Work On My Defensive Driving Course Anytime?
Juggling a busy life is made even more complicated by adding one more ball to the mix, like taking a defensive driving course. Why not make things easier on yourself by taking a course that is available 24/7, can be started and stopped at any time, and that can work on any device? You can even change devices midstream. If you have any techno-toy close, you can jump right back to where you left off. This makes it easy to get your course done the way you’d eat an elephant—one piece at a time.
