Safe driving class

Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, March 18th, 12:33 pm

An upcoming safe driving course being held by AAA-Alabama will allow Huntsville area drivers age 55 and older to sharpen their driving safety skills and save money on auto insurance. This is a great opportunity for mature drivers to refresh their driving knowledge and learn some terrific defensive driving techniques.

Alabama law requires auto insurance providers to award a discount to anyone who takes this class, age 55 and older. Typical insurance discounts range between five and ten percent per year and the certification is valid for three years.
