Your site really gave me a real insight concerning many different signs to look out for. I appreciate all that I have learned and the extra benefit of lowering my insurance. I made a score of 90% so this shows that I have officially obtained the credentials as a safe defensive driver. Be blessed and be a blessing to others. Cblove

Hi Chanel, congratulations on completing the course with a 90%! Our defensive driving course is designed to sharpen your hazard awareness, and it's reviewed and approved for auto insurance discounts, so it's great that translated into savings for you too. Be blessed right back! – SafeMotorist
Being able to work on the course at my own pace worked very well for me.
The online format worked way better for me than if I had to sit for a 6 hour class. It was easier to break it down into sections that I could do each day. I believe that I learned more by doing the defensive driving course on line.

Hi Pat, that's exactly why we built the course in self-contained sections instead of one long sitting, so you can learn at a pace that actually sticks. Glad it worked better for you than a 6-hour classroom! – SafeMotorist

Hi there, thank you for the review! The read-along audio option is one of our favorite features too, it makes the material more accessible however you prefer to learn. – SafeMotorist

Hi Chris, thanks for the honest feedback. To clarify for anyone reading this: certificates are available to download for free within about 5 business days of completion, or instantly if you choose the digital delivery upgrade at checkout. We hear that the distinction wasn't clear upfront, and we're sorry about that. – SafeMotorist

Hi Jerry, thanks for the kind words and the idea! Our defensive driving course is built around passenger vehicles right now, but rider-specific content is a great suggestion, and one we'll bring back to our curriculum team. – SafeMotorist

Hi Boon, glad the pacing worked for you! We keep the course and exam tight so you can get back to your day quickly without skipping the material that matters. – SafeMotorist

Hi Donna, thank you for the review! Reinforcing good habits behind the wheel is really the whole point of defensive driving training, so this means a lot. – SafeMotorist

Good to learn more safe driving rules. Additional benefit is the insurance discount.

Hi Anthony, thank you! Beyond the safety refresher, we're glad the insurance discount worked out for you too, many carriers recognize our course for exactly that reason. – SafeMotorist

Hi Daisy, we're sorry about that. Your course access link is normally emailed the moment your purchase goes through, so if it didn't land in your inbox, it's worth checking your spam or promotions folder first. You can also get straight into your course anytime by logging in directly at safemotorist.com with the email you registered with. We've also resent your receipt along with the steps to get started, so you can jump right in. – SafeMotorist
