Who approves the Defensive Driving course offered by this provider?

Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS)
Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT)
Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR)
Texas Department of Driver Services (DDS)

The correct answer is: Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR)

The correct answer is that the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) approves the Defensive Driving course offered by this provider. The TDLR is responsible for overseeing and regulating various industries and programs in Texas, including those related to driver education and safety training. Their approval ensures that the course meets state standards for quality and effectiveness, allowing participants to fulfill requirements often set by courts or insurance companies for traffic violations or premium reductions. On the other hand, the other entities listed do have roles in driver-related matters, but their responsibilities differ. The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) primarily manages driver licensing and the enforcement of state traffic laws; the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) focuses on the overall transportation system in the state, including road safety; and the Texas Department of Driver Services (DDS) is not a recognized body in Texas's driver education context.
