Defensive Driving School in Buckeye

Arizona allows most drivers to take defensive driving school to dismiss a traffic ticket. You must request this option before your court date. Contact Buckeye Municipal Court to get approval. The court will set a deadline for completing the class and submitting your certificate.

You cannot use traffic school if you completed it for another ticket in the past 12 months. CDL holders cannot use this option for violations while driving commercial vehicles. The class takes about four hours and is available online or in person. Completing it keeps points off your driving record and prevents insurance rate increases.

Interstate 10 Through Buckeye

Interstate 10 runs through Buckeye, connecting Phoenix to Los Angeles. State troopers patrol this highway actively, and speed enforcement is common. However, tickets from state troopers on I-10 typically go to Maricopa County Justice Courts, not Buckeye Municipal Court.

Check your citation to see which court has your case. If a state trooper or county deputy wrote the ticket, it likely goes to the West McDowell Justice Court or another county court. Buckeye Municipal Court handles tickets from Buckeye city police only.
