A friend, who is resident of IL and has an IL DL, got a speeding ticket in Oklahoma, which they refused to sign. They were charged to drive at 61 mph in a 40 mph zone with a ticket of $259. Can they take a defensive driving test to get the points off? If, yes which state's test they need, OK or IL?

Note that this is their first ever ticket.

Points reduction, for points assessed by Oklahoma, is possible, see here: "Two (2) points shall be credited to a person's driving record upon successful completion of an approved Driver Improvement/Defensive Driving Course". There is, apparently, no authoritative state-wide published list of such courses. In the case of OK City, they give you a number to call (or else show up at city all) to make the request. So it would depend on the local policy.
