MEREDITH— The Community Center is hosting the six hour AARP Driver Safety Program called the Smart Driver Course on Wednesday, Nov. 18 (9 a.m. to 4 p.m.). Participants are encouraged to bring their lunch.
AARP developed this classroom refresher course to ensure that drivers 50 and older stay safe behind the wheel. The course's curriculum was updated in 2014 to reflect the most current driving information and safety tips available. The driver safety course is designed to educate participants about how best to reduce traffic violations, crashes, and chances for injuries, update drivers' knowledge about relevant laws and provide safe driving strategies to compensate for age-related changes that affect ones' driving ability. Upon successful completion of the course participants may be eligible for a discount on their automobile insurance (depends upon your insurance carriers' policy).
The course fee is $15 for AARP members who show their membership card. All others will have a $20 fee.
To register for the course, please call Allen Gable at 524-7563.
