Have the clerk confirm the approved option
A city traffic citation and its driving-safety request are handled by the municipal court, not by purchasing a course alone. Ask the clerk to confirm your eligibility, the fee for the selected option and how the completion evidence must be delivered. Retain the written approval with your citation.
