Defensive Driving Courses
Insurance and Point Reduction Course:
- A class consists of 6 hours of classroom discussion and videos. There
is no behind the wheel driving.
- A class can be taken once every three years for insurance reduction.
The reduction is a minimum of 5% off the comprehensive portion of the
insurance only and is done at time of renewal. If you have 4 or more
points your insurance company may not give a discount (you should check
with them).
- A class can be taken once every five years for point reduction. Two
points will be taken off your DMV driving record only. The points are
removed the day you complete your six hour course, although it may take
several weeks for it to show on your DMV driving abstract.
- A 16 year old may take the course but it is up to the insurance carrier
if they will provide any additional discounts beyond what the student
is already receiving.
- If you have an out of state license you may take this course but there
is no guarantee that your insurance carrier will provide you with the
discount or your state may not reduce your points since this course
has only been approved by the State of New Jersey.
