The AARP Driver Safety Program has announced their SCV Senior Center teaching schedule for the second half of 2009. Full-course classes run in “even” months, Fridays from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. This course covers the Rules of the Road as well as safety tips, and completion of this eight-hour class will earn each participant a three-year certificate, which for drivers 55 and over, can earn them an auto insurance credit.
Refresher classes run in “odd” numbered months, Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. by instructor Glenn Grade. Participants are eligible for the Refresher class following the completion of a regular eight-hour class within the past four years.
Class fees are $14 cash or check. AARP members, however, may take the class for $12. AARP members must bring a valid membership card, or a copy of their most recent membership-fee check.
Dates for 2009 are: July 11, Refresher; August 7 and 8; September 12, Refresher; October 9 and 10; November 14, Refresher, and December 4 and 5.
