Tennyson is a small Warrick County town whose strongest verified local driving topics are State Road 161, Main Street, and Tennyson Elementary School.
For state traffic-ticket purposes, use the Warrick County court identified on the citation rather than looking for a separate Tennyson Town Court.
Which Court Handles a Tennyson Traffic Ticket?
Warrick County publishes its Misdemeanor and Infraction Division at:
One County Square, Suite 320 Boonville, IN 47601 812-897-6146.
Tennyson Indiana Online Driver Safety Program
ABetterDriver.com currently offers a BMV-approved Indiana online DSP for $28.95.
The course can satisfy an applicable BMV DSP requirement or produce the voluntary Indiana 4-point credit.
It does not automatically dismiss a Tennyson ticket.
Warrick County Infraction Deferral for a Tennyson Ticket
Qualifying Tennyson citations can potentially enter the county's six-month Infraction Deferral Program.
The current $192.50 moving-violation fee and Warrick County eligibility restrictions apply countywide.
Driving in Tennyson: SR 161 and Main Street
State Road 161
Current state mapping and project documents identify S.R. 161 through the Tennyson area.
For drivers, the key issue is the transition between a state-highway corridor and a very small town street network.
The available official project material does not justify describing a major active 2026 S.R. 161 closure inside Tennyson, so no current closure claim should be added without a newer INDOT notice.
Main Street and Tennyson Elementary
Tennyson Elementary School 323 North Main Street Tennyson, IN 47637 Phone: 812-567-4715.
Because the elementary school is directly on Main Street, school arrival and dismissal create one of the town's strongest verified local traffic considerations.
Tennyson Town Hall
Town of Tennyson 112 North Main Street Tennyson, IN 47637 Phone: 812-567-8816
Current office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to noon and 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Town Hall and the elementary school are both on Main Street, making that street the clearest local municipal corridor for this page.
Avoid Inventing Tennyson Traffic Rules
I did not locate sufficiently current official municipal material establishing:
A town golf-cart ordinance.
Special town parking zones.
Town-specific posted speed schedules.
Truck-route restrictions.
Those rules should not be copied from Elberfeld, Chandler, or Lynnville merely because the municipalities are in the same county.
