According to the Jefferson County traffic court to dismiss a traffic violation that one must first apply to have your case dismissed upon completion of a defensive driving course and payment of court fees. This will permit a person to prevent the accrual of points assessed against an Alabama driver’s license and avoid a court appearance and as a result of the cited violation.
So it seems that it is possible for your daughter to request driving school for her speeding ticket in Alabama but she will need to speak to the court and perhaps the district lawyer to know for certain and get approved. If the speeding ticket is not able to be dismissed with driving school then the Alabama courts will likely tell your home state of Clarksville, Tennessee regarding her speeding violation. According to the Tennessee DPS, if they are informed of out of state moving violation convictions, such as a speeding ticket from AL, the violation will go on your daughter’s Tennessee driving history and points will be assessed.
