Course Participation Can Deliver Auto Insurance Discounts

Pearce will host the AARP's Safe Driver Course on Tuesday and Wednesday, September 16 and 17 from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The course is open to all ages. The cost is $15 for AARP members; $20 for non-members.

In Illinois, if an individual is 55 or older, the primary driver of a vehicle, has a good driving record, and takes a course approved by the Secretary of State, all automobile insurance companies must provide a discount on automobile insurance premiums. Participants must attend both days to receive credit from their automobile insurance company.
