If you received a traffic ticket in New Whiteland, there is an important local distinction: New Whiteland does not list its own city or town court.
The New Whiteland Police Department instead links residents directly to both Franklin City Court and Greenwood City Court, as well as the Johnson County Prosecutor. (Indiana Government)

Johnson County Traffic Deferral
New Whiteland Police specifically links drivers to the Johnson County Prosecutor as one of its traffic/court resources. (Indiana Government)
Johnson County Prosecutor 1 Caisson Drive Franklin, IN 46131 317-346-4525 (Indiana Government)
If your ticket is actually filed in Greenwood City Court, Greenwood's separate published deferral program may apply instead. Check the court before relying on any particular deferral rules. (City of Greenwood)
Do not represent ABetterDriver.com's online Driver Safety Program as satisfying deferral unless the appropriate court or prosecutor confirms it.

An Indiana driver who voluntarily completes an approved DSP can receive a 4-point credit on the driver's Official Driver Record once every three years. (Indiana Government)

Driving in New Whiteland: Local Vehicle and Street Rules
New Whiteland's 11,000-Pound Street Restriction
New Whiteland's current town code contains an unusually useful city-specific traffic rule.
The code establishes an 11,000-pound vehicle-weight limit on town streets, with specified exceptions for:
Tracy Road
Sawmill Road
Whiteland Road (Indiana Government)
This helps explain why heavier through traffic may be concentrated on particular corridors rather than every residential street.
Drivers should follow current posted weight-limit signs and ordinance requirements.
Tracy Road
Tracy Road is particularly relevant locally because it is one of the streets exempted from the general 11,000-pound town restriction, and New Whiteland Town Hall and Police Department are both located along Tracy Road. (Indiana Government)
That gives the New Whiteland page genuinely local road information rather than generic Johnson County content.
Local Golf Cart Rules
The New Whiteland Police Department also maintains a link to the Town's golf-cart ordinance among its traffic and public-safety resources. (Indiana Government)
Drivers should follow the current local ordinance and posted requirements when operating or encountering golf carts on town streets.

Greenwood BMV Branch 349 S. Washington Street Greenwood, IN 46143 (Indiana Government)
You do not need to visit either branch simply to complete ABetterDriver.com's online Driver Safety Program.
