Defensive Driving 55+

Instructor: Denise Lillis – 218-346-3336

Today’s roads are much faster and more dangerous, which is why it’s a good idea to take a defensive driving course and make sure you’re ready for the hazards of everyday driving. There will be a review of the state regulations and road signs, in addition to essential defensive driving techniques that may help you avoid an accident! You’ll learn adjustments to accommodate common age-related changes in vision, hearing, and reaction time. According to Minnesota state law, people age 55 and older who complete a state-approved defensive driving course are eligible to receive a 10%, three-year discount on auto insurance. The class consists of lectures, films, and discussions. There is no behind-the-wheel driving and there are no tests. Once you have completed the full eight-hour course, a four-hour refresher is needed every three years. 

To register for the Defensive Driving classes or information on an eight-hour class, please call Denise at 218.346.3336.   Fee: $20 and payable at class.
