The Atlantic County Office of Highway Traffic Safety and the South Jersey Transportation Planning Organization (SJTPO) will be offering the National Safety Council (NSC), 6-hour Defensive Driving course aimed at providing participants with the practical knowledge and techniques necessary to avoid traffic violations and motor vehicle crashes.
The choices you make behind the wheel can change your life forever. This highly interactive course educates participants about making positive decisions to improve driving behaviors by practicing safe, responsible and lawful driving through a self-assessment risk survey, a series of learning activities and discussions, videos with real-life driver simulations and hazard recognition scenarios.
Participants who complete the course may be eligible to receive up to a 5% discount on their insurance and/or a 2-point reduction, if needed, on their NJ Driver License. To confirm discount information, participants should contact their insurance carrier.
There is a required course fee of $10 to be paid through check or money order (cash is not accepted) and made payable to the National Safety Council to receive a certificate and insurance discount/point reduction.
The course will be held from 9AM-3PM on Saturday, April 25 at the Anthony Canale Training Center located at 5033 English Creek Avenue in Egg Harbor Township. Registration is required.
