AARP Safe Driving Class Offered

Open to Meigs County Residents Too

GALLIPOLIS – A safe driving class sponsored by the AARP in connection with the Gallipolis Christian Church located at 4486 State Route 588 Gallipolis, Ohio. The class will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday May 6, 2016.

The Safe Driving Program is a classroom driver improvement course for drivers aged 50 and older, although there is no age limit. This program developed by AARP can sharpen driving skills, help prevent accidents and keep older drivers on the road longer and more safely.

For many people, the Safe Driving Class can also save money on car insurance. Ohio Law permits auto insurance carriers to offer a discount on premiums to qualified graduates of the approved AARP class. So, the next time you look at progressive insurance reviews and compare policies, you’ll find yourself paying less! Policyholders should contact their carriers for more information about such discounts.

Registration forms can be completed by calling the church office at (740) 446-1863. The cost of the class is $15 for AARP members and $20 for non members. Checks are to be made payable to AARP DSP or please have the exact amount of cash.

You will need to have your AARP membership number and also your operator’s license number when calling to register. Instructor for the class is James Oiler.
