Dismiss Your Austin Traffic Ticket Online
Most in-city Austin citations land at Austin Municipal Court. Defensive driving — requested before your appearance date — is the standard dismissal path.
Free eligibility check · 10 modules · ~6 hours
If you were cited by Austin PD inside city limits, your ticket is almost certainly with Austin Municipal Court. Travis County JP courts handle citations from DPS and the constable's office. Both honor the defensive driving dismissal path for eligible drivers.
The cost of doing nothing
Austin Municipal Court has a busy docket — early requests are easier to process.
Travis County JP precincts each have their own filing portal.
Once paid, the ticket is treated as a conviction and dismissal is no longer available.
Where Austin-area citations actually land
Austin Police citations within city limits go to Austin Municipal Court at 6800 Burleson Rd. DPS troopers on I-35, MoPac, US 183, and Toll 130 file citations with Travis County JP precincts (or Williamson County for stops on I-35 north of central Austin). The Austin metro spans multiple counties — the citation names the specific issuing court.
- Austin Police (city-limit stops) → Austin Municipal Court at 6800 Burleson Rd.
- DPS troopers (I-35 in Travis County, MoPac, 183) → Travis County JP courts.
- DPS troopers (I-35 north of Austin) → Williamson County JP courts.
- Citation always names the specific issuing court.
I-35 corridor and MoPac enforcement
I-35 through Austin is one of the most heavily-patrolled stretches in Central Texas. MoPac, US 183, and Toll 130 also see steady DPS speeding enforcement. Speeding citations on these corridors typically go to Travis County JP precincts — submit defensive driving requests there, not to Austin Municipal. Williamson County applies once you're north of central Austin (Round Rock area).
