In California, those who are 55 years of age or more are eligible for a discount on their automobile insurance if they attend the Mature Driver Safety course. Completion of this course provides a DMV certificate that is valid for 3 years of insurance discounts. Check with your insurance provider to learn the discount amount for your policy. Topics covered in this course include risk management, a review of traffic laws, updates on new laws, habits that can compensate for the natural mental and physical changes of aging, aggressive driving, impaired driving and much more. This is one of the most popular courses at the council and it often sells out very quickly. The first time certification requires a full-day course. If you have already taken this course in the past, see the information under Mature Driver Safety - Renewal. Payment in advance is required. Reservations are taken on a 1st paid basis. Classes fill quickly. Mail a check or money order to the council or come to the council office. If paying with cash, exact change is required. The council makes every effort not to cancel or overbook classes, therefore, tuition is not refundable or transferable to a different date. No walk-ins are admitted on the day of the class. |
