    Can anyone recommend a tolerable defensive driving school in West or NW Houston that won't put me to sleep and may be even slightly humorous?

    I've been to a few on the NW side in the past, but after a few hours I wanted to gauge my own eyes out.

    And no, I don't want to do it online or by video... or I'll never do it. I need to set aside some time where I have to travel somewhere in order to accomplish this task.

    Good question. Honestly, I don't know. Just keep putting it off I guess.

    Do it online. I'll never go to one of those classes again.

    You need to drive to Clutch's house and give him a check. If you intend to do it online, it'll never get done. ;)

    Obviously the course material didn't sink in the first two times. :)

    Well, the great thing about defensivedriving.com is you can watch tv while taking the class...

    I actually just got a ticket so I'll either do DD or do def. adjudication...

    I call BS, because not only did my radar not go off, but he refused to show me what he clocked me at...I know I may have been speeding, but not at 88 like he was saying...Anyway, its in small town o/s of Dallas and I don't have the time to fight...:mad:

    The sucky thing is that I have invested heavily in a quality radar detector. However, whenever I'm too lazy to turn it on, that is the precise moment I GET A FREAKIN' TICKET!!!

    Damn operator error!

    I've done the comedy club defensive driving, which wasn't bad. For this instance it was about 9 years ago and the club I went to (Comedy Showcase), Ralphie (the BIG Guy) from last comic standing, and that VH1 Celebrity fat camp, was the guy who did my Defensive driving class.. pretty fun. He told us a bunch of jokes and practically gave us the answers for the test.

    I also did the on-line thing. What made it cool was that you could work through a couple sections, log off, and then come back when you had more time. Very convenient.
