Completing which program triggers reporting to DPS?

• A. Driving safety course completion
• B. Deferred disposition completion
• C. Probation completion
• D. Community service completion

Answer: (B)

Completing a deferred disposition is the moment the court finalizes how the case will be handled and signals a change to the driving record. When you’re placed on deferred disposition, you agree to meet certain conditions (such as paying fines, fees, attending classes, or performing community service). If you successfully complete those terms, the case is dismissed, and the court reports the disposition to the Department of Public Safety. That formal report updates your driving record to show the deferral was satisfied and the offense didn’t result in a conviction.

Driving safety course completion can affect penalties or points, but it isn’t the event that triggers the same kind of official DPS report about a deferral. Probation and community service are part of the court-ordered terms, but DPS reporting tied to the driving record specifically aligns with completing deferred disposition.
