A comprehensive course designed especially for drivers 50 and above is being offered at Grafton Township office. All drivers are welcome to participate.

Participants learn how to operate their vehicles more safely in today’s increasingly challenging driving environment and receive a thorough review of the “rules of the road,” with an emphasis on safety strategies of defensive driving. You will also find out how to safely adjust your driving to compensate for age-related changes in vision, hearing and reaction time.
 
A certificate of completion is provided that under Illinois law, entitles a 55+ years driver to a reduction in auto insurance premiums for three years (A consultation should be made with your insurance company for the exact discount and the correct procedure to obtain it).

This is a two-day course; participants must attend both classes. Available in a classroom setting, the course is open to AARP members and non-members of all ages, and there are no tests.
