AARP Driver Safety Class

The AARP Driver Safety Program is designed as a driving refresher for motorists age 50 and older. The course, conducted by Morton Skidelsky, includes information on safer driving habits, how to avoid driving hazards, changes in roadway conditions, safety equipment on your automobile, as well as a discussion of when to consider driver retirement. The class also covers much of the information needed to pass the Illinois State license exam and reviews the eyesight, hearing, and physical changes that drivers experience as they age. Completion of the two-day class may entitle the participant to a discount on his or her auto insurance. Please check with your insurance carrier for further details. A $12/$14 fee payable to AARP is due in class.
