Defensive Driving Time Again
Oct. 1st, 2007 10:09 pmIt's been three years since my last defensive driving course which means it's time to take it again to save my 10% on my car insurance. That 10% is not much on my old car, but it still pays to take the class. Plus occasionally I learn a new law that applies to me.
In the olden days I could often find someone to take the course with, but lately I've been taking it with only strangers. So far my favorite is a straight course. The instructors got us all to tell our stories, which was interesting (except for mine). I've tried comedy courses, but they tend to either be not funny or abusive or both. And one with a free coupon to a comedy club turned out to have a buy-one-get-one-free coupon instead. I've tried a free pizza course, but somehow it costs $10 more than other courses and they limit you to two pieces each. I've heard of an online course, but a friend told me you have to keep jumping up to look up things on your car. However, I've heard these are much better now, so I may try one.
If any of you nearby folks find yourselves suddenly wanting to take one of these courses, let me know! And if you have a recommendation, I'd love to hear that.
