Defensive Driving Course
for Onondaga County

"Hello, I'm a certified instructor offering LIVE as well as ONLINE classes."

Over the past 4 years, I have presented our live DMV approved program at Columbia-Greene Community College, North East Community Center, Ichabod Crane High School, and Taconic Hills Central School District ("Go Titans!"), among a growing number of schools and community locations in the Hudson Valley Region — our "partners in driver safety education". Here is what's new: Now, with the continued support of the Empire Safety Council, we are reaching out to a wider audience by offering the online class option throughout the Great State of New York, INCLUDING ONONDAGA COUNTY.

Ten Percent Off Your Auto Insurance Premium — Honored by all New York State Insurance Companies Once you complete the Point and Insurance Reduction Program through one of Empire Safety Council's local agencies, your are eligible for an immediate 10% discount on your Collision and Auto Liability premium, including Property Damage (PD), Bodily Injury (BI), and Personal Injury Protection (PIP). Your discount will apply for 3 years to all vehicles for which you are the principal operator.

Four Point Reduction on New York State Driving Record If you have incurred violations during the 18-month period prior to completing the course, up to four points will automatically be reduced on your driving record. The point reduction could help you avoid a license suspension. It will not however, cancel a mandatory suspension or revocation, e.g. 3 speeding convictions within 18 months; nor will it cancel any action already being taken against a motorist's driving privileges.
