Defensive Driving

A-B Tech defensive driving courses are designed for those who have received a citation outside of Buncombe County. Classes are offered in cooperation with the Safety & Health Council of North Carolina. Whether you are a young driver wanting to improve your skills or have received a ticket or court order, we have a class for you.

DDC-4 and DDCADD (8 hours) are offered once a month. If you are unsure of the class you need to take, contact the office instructing you to take the course. If you receive a ticket or court order, you will be directed as to which class to take. If you are unsure, please contact the courthouse or your attorney. Registration and payment must be made no later than 24 hours before a class begins.
