Montana offers a defensive driving course for an insurance discount and court-ordered ticket dismissal. This recommended online course, offered through I Drive Safely, is a defensive driving course for an insurance discount and court compliance. It is completed at your own pace on any device. It is not a statewide-approved traffic school.
For ticket dismissal or to satisfy a court requirement, you must obtain your court's approval and verify that I Drive Safely appears on your court's list of approved course providers before enrolling. Court acceptance for a specific citation is not guaranteed — confirm with your court before enrolling. An insurance discount is not guaranteed — whether you receive a discount, and how much, depends on your insurer, so check with your insurer to confirm discount eligibility.
Montana does not maintain a statewide-approved online defensive-driving provider list, and this I Drive Safely course is not a statewide-approved Montana traffic school. The only official Montana traffic-school path is a course accepted by the referring court; this course does not reduce points on your Montana driving record through any statewide program and is an insurance-discount and court-compliance course only.
