The AARP Driver Safety Program, sponsored by Richland Public Health, will have its next class at the Area Agency on Aging on September 18. The class will be in Suite 300 of the Training & Event Center at the Area Agency on Aging building at Hawkins Corner, 2131 Park Avenue West, Ontario.
The AARP Driver Safety Program is the nation’s first and largest classroom refresher course for motorists age 50 and older. The class is a one-day four-hour course. The new “Smart Driver” course has been completely revised for 2014 with new material and videos.
The September 18 class starts at 9 a.m. and runs until 1 p.m. Coffee and refreshments will be provided. Cost for the class is $15 for AARP members and $20 for all others. Class size is limited to 25. Walk-ins are welcome if there are openings. To register, call Health Education/Promotion at Richland Public Health, 419-774-4544.
“Anyone who took this course in 2011 or earlier should consider a refresher this year in order to keep their AARP insurance discounts,” said Reed Richmond, co-instructor for the course. “Auto insurance discounts may be available to others who complete the course but you should check with your insurance agent or provider.”
