New York drivers are eligible for a 10 percent, three-year car insurance discount and a four- point reduction on their driving record after completing a new 320-minute online defensive driving course.
The Improv Aware Driver Course is the first of its kind to be approved by the state Department of Motor Vehicles and costs $48.95.
Saratoga County Clerk Kathleen Marchione confirmed that the online course would result in a reduction of four points on their driver’s licenses.
The course consists of 10 modules that feature video clips, text and graphics and cover subjects like basic traffic laws, DUI laws and seat belt use. Students may log in and out of the course 24 hours a day as long as it is completed within 30 days.
Upon completion, a certificate is mailed to students that can be submitted to their insurance company for the mandatory 10 percent discount. The state DMV is also notified so the driver’s point total can be reduced.
Every New York driver is eligible, regardless of their driving record.
The course is available at www.MyImprovNewYork.com.
