Benefits of Taking a Mature Driver Improvement Course
Mature drivers who successfully complete an approved mature driver improvement course can qualify for reduced insurance premiums.
California law allows insurance companies to determine the percentage of premium reduction. The insurance carrier can refuse to give a reduced rate to those who have poor driving records. You may wish to ask your insurance company about your eligibility and the amount of discount prior to taking an approved mature driver improvement course.
