If you received a traffic ticket in Trafalgar, Indiana, check the citation first to determine which Johnson County court is handling the case.
ABetterDriver.com offers an Indiana BMV-approved online Driver Safety Program for $28.95. The Indiana BMV currently lists ABetterDriver.com as an approved online DSP provider. (Indiana Government)
The course may be relevant if the BMV required you to complete a DSP or if you voluntarily want the eligible Indiana 4-point credit.
A court order or Johnson County traffic deferral is a separate process and should be verified before you enroll.
Which Court Handles a Trafalgar Traffic Ticket?
Current Johnson County court listings do not identify a separate Trafalgar town court. Johnson County lists Franklin City Court, Greenwood City Court, Circuit and Superior Courts, and the Johnson County Clerk. (Johnson County, Ind)
Greenwood City Court has jurisdiction over infractions allegedly committed anywhere in Johnson County. Franklin City Court also handles traffic infractions. Your citation or Indiana MyCase record should identify which court is responsible for your particular Trafalgar ticket. (City of Greenwood)
Franklin City Court
2851 N. Morton Street Franklin, IN 46131 Phone: 317-736-3619 (City of Franklin)
Greenwood City Court
186 Surina Way Greenwood, IN 46143 Phone: 317-882-5129 (City of Greenwood)
Johnson County Clerk
For cases actually assigned to a Johnson County Circuit or Superior Court:
5 E. Jefferson Street Franklin, IN 46131 Phone: 317-346-4450 (Johnson County, Ind)
Do not select a court solely because it is closest to Trafalgar. Follow the citation.

Trafalgar Indiana Online Driver Safety Program
Indiana BMV-approved DSP courses are available online. All approved programs contain at least four hours of instruction, and the maximum price permitted by the BMV is $55. (Indiana Government)
ABetterDriver.com is currently included on the BMV's approved provider list and offers its Indiana online Driver Safety Program for $28.95.
BMV-Required Online Driver Safety Program
Indiana law provides that drivers convicted of two or more traffic offenses within 12 months may be required to complete a DSP. Drivers under 21 are required to complete a DSP after two or more traffic convictions. (Indiana Government)
When the BMV sends a DSP requirement, it states that completion is required within 90 days or driving privileges can be suspended. (Indiana Government)
Voluntary Indiana 4-Point Credit
Any Indiana driver can voluntarily complete a BMV-approved DSP.
Successful completion results in a 4-point credit on the driver's Indiana Official Driver Record. The credit may be applied once every three years. (Indiana Government)
The program does not remove the underlying citation.
Johnson County Traffic Deferral for a Trafalgar Ticket
Johnson County's official traffic-ticket information states that traffic deferral is administered by the Johnson County Prosecutor and directs questions to 317-346-4525. (Johnson County Sheriff's Office)
Johnson County Prosecutor's Office 1 Caisson Drive Franklin, IN 46131 Phone: 317-346-4525 (Indiana Government)
The current official sources reviewed do not publish a complete current fee schedule, comprehensive eligibility rules, or a verified online course requirement for Johnson County deferral.
Therefore, do not assume that ABetterDriver.com's online Driver Safety Program satisfies Johnson County traffic deferral.
Verify the requirement directly with the Prosecutor or court.
Driving in Trafalgar: State Road 135 and State Road 252
Trafalgar has unusually useful local driving information because State Road 135 and State Road 252 intersect in town.
The current Trafalgar traffic code refers directly to the intersection of SR 135 and SR 252 and contains local operating restrictions involving both highways. (American Legal Publishing)
State Road 135 and State Road 252
The intersection of SR 135 and SR 252 brings regional traffic into a smaller town street network.
Trafalgar's code identifies a stop-controlled movement on Trafalgar Square Drive immediately west of the SR 135/SR 252 intersection. It also identifies Pearl Street and Highway 135 as a two-way stop-controlled intersection. (American Legal Publishing)
Drivers should follow the actual signs and signals at the intersection rather than relying on an assumed right-of-way based on road size.
Golf Carts and Personal Transportation Carts
Trafalgar's local vehicle rules are especially relevant because drivers may encounter registered motorized carts on certain local roads.
Under the current town code, qualifying personal transportation carts can operate on non-prohibited public roads posted at 40 mph or less, but their operating speed cannot exceed 30 mph. Operators must possess a valid driver's license. (American Legal Publishing)
The code specifically prohibits these carts from operating along:
State Road 135
State Road 252
Streets with speed limits above 40 mph
The carts may cross SR 135 or SR 252, but only at street intersections. (American Legal Publishing)
That is a meaningful Trafalgar-specific road rule and should remain unique to this page.
Indian Creek School Traffic in Trafalgar
Another major Trafalgar-specific driving issue is the Indian Creek school campus.
Indian Creek Schools states that all four schools are located on one campus in Trafalgar, and its transportation department identifies the campus as being at the crossroads of SR 135 and SR 252. (Indian Creek Schools)
Current 2026-27 school information provides specific car-rider traffic rules:
Indian Creek Middle School and High School car riders must use the back parking lot for drop-off and pickup.
Morning ICMS/ICHS drop-off takes place at the high school fieldhouse.
During afternoon pickup, parents form lines in parking spaces behind the fieldhouse.
The entrance behind the middle school is entrance-only during drop-off and pickup.
Vehicles must exit west of the buildings and then travel north or south.
School buildings open at 7:45 a.m. and families are instructed not to drop students off earlier. (Indian Creek Schools)
This information is current for the 2026-27 school year and is far more useful to a Trafalgar driver than population statistics.
Current School Pickup Times
Indian Creek Elementary School currently lists afternoon pickup beginning at 2:55 p.m., while Indian Creek Intermediate lists pickup beginning at 3:05 p.m. (Indian Creek Schools)
Indian Creek Middle School and High School currently list afternoon pickup beginning at 3:20 p.m. (Indian Creek Schools)
Drivers who are not going to the school campus should expect additional turning and queueing activity in the area around those periods.
Local Trafalgar Parking Tickets Versus Traffic Citations
The Town of Trafalgar's current municipal website includes a separate Pay Parking Ticket service. (Town of Trafalgar, Indiana)
A local parking ticket should not automatically be treated the same as a moving traffic citation assigned to Franklin City Court, Greenwood City Court, or another Johnson County court.
Read the document you received and follow the payment or court instructions printed on it.
BMV Services for Trafalgar Drivers
Trafalgar does not appear on the BMV's current list as a full BMV branch.

The BMV also operates its Greenwood branch at 349 S. Washington Street. (Indiana Government)
