If a defendant's driving record shows not eligible, the court must still dismiss the traffic charge if the defendant completed the driving safety course.

• A. True
• B. Not true
• C. The court must dismiss the traffic charge if completed the DSC
• D. False

Answer: (D)

Eligibility to take a driving safety course is what allows a traffic case to be dismissed after course completion. Completing the course does not automatically lead to dismissal if the defendant is not eligible under the law. When the driving record shows not eligible, the opportunity to dismiss based on DSC is not available, even if the course was completed. In that situation, the court isn’t required to dismiss the charge and may proceed with adjudication or impose penalties under other rules. So, the statement is false because DSC dismissal is contingent on meeting eligibility criteria, not simply on completing the course.
