Driving While Intoxicated (DWI)

 

See class schedule/dates and register online by using the tabs above.

 

Article 42.12, Section l3(h),Code of Criminal Procedure

requires persons convicted of first offense DWI and

receiving probation, to attend and successfully complete

an educational program certified by the department.

 

Failure to complete the program within l80 days (unless

an extension was granted) from the date probation was

granted will result in the offender’s license being revoked. The license cannot be reinstated until the educational program is completed.

 

The standardized program is 12 hours in length and is designed to help DWI offenders increase their knowledge about alcohol and drugs as these substances relate to driving skills, to identify their own individual drinking/drug use and driving patterns, and to assist them in developing plans which will reduce the probability of future DWI behavior.

 

Specific course topics include alcohol/drugs and traffic safety problems, Texas laws relating to DWI, effects of alcohol/drugs on humans, alcohol/drugs and driving task abilities, chemical dependency, symptoms of dependency, sources of assistance, costs of DWI, and decision-making.
