Why as a senior should I take AARP?

AARP and defensive driving courses for seniors are often recommended for a number of important reasons:

1. Improved Safety: As people age, their reaction times, vision, and cognitive functions may change, which can impact driving. Defensive driving courses teach skills to anticipate and avoid potential accidents, making driving safer for seniors.
2. Insurance Discounts: Many insurance companies offer discounts to drivers who complete defensive driving courses. AARP offers access to these courses, and seniors may benefit from reduced premiums as a result.
3. Refresh Driving Skills: Defensive driving courses help seniors stay updated on new traffic laws and driving techniques, which can be particularly important if they have been driving for many years.
4. Increased Confidence: Taking a course can give seniors greater confidence on the road, particularly if they are experiencing concerns about their driving abilities.
5. Preventing Accidents: Defensive driving courses teach drivers to look out for hazards, how to handle different driving conditions, and how to make safe decisions, which can help prevent accidents.
