About this guide

Custer County, Oklahoma, has about 28,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A traffic ticket written in Custer County is a court case in the Custer County District Court; a city with a municipal court tries its own, and the conviction it ends in goes on the driving record kept by Service Oklahoma. This guide says which court takes the ticket, who writes them and where the driving record lives.

This guide covers where tickets go, who writes them, the driving record, cities and common questions.

Who Writes the Tickets in Custer County

The Custer County Sheriff's Office and the agencies that report for Weatherford, Clinton, Thomas, Arapaho and Butler write the traffic tickets in Custer County.

The FBI's agency list also places one more agency in Custer County: Southwestern Oklahoma State University (campus police).

The Driving Record and Service Oklahoma

The driving record is a separate document from the court file. It is kept by Service Oklahoma, which adds each conviction the court reports and handles suspensions; the court does not issue driving records.

Paying a ticket is a conviction, reported to Service Oklahoma like any other; contesting it means a plea of not guilty entered with the court by the date on the ticket.

A DUI is a criminal charge rather than a ticket, with its own license case before Service Oklahoma (see Custer County DUI).

Cities in Custer County
