Qualifications for Orange Beach & Referral Cases

If you possess a Commercial Driver's License you do not qualify for defensive driving school.

You may attend one of the Defensive Driving Courses offered if you received a traffic citation. We will determine if you qualify and the course to be taken. If you plead guilty to the traffic citation in this Court, it is too late to take driving school. The fee for the four-hour class is $75 and Alive at 25 is $100. If you are taking the course for an Orange Beach citation, the cost of the court also applies. Upon completion of the class, the defendant's charge will be dismissed unless otherwise ordered by the Court.

Volunteer & Business Opportunities

If you wish to attend a class on a volunteer basis, as a refresher course, maybe for insurance purposes, or for any reason, call the Orange Beach Municipal Court for course dates or check our calendar. The fee for attending the four-hour class is $40 and the Alive at 25 is $50, if you are 55 years of age or older, the fee is $30.

We also offer classes for businesses that would like to send their drivers through a refresher course and/or for insurance purposes. The fee for attending is $35 per hour for the instructor and $10 per person. Please call the Orange Beach Municipal Court to schedule a class.
