AARP Driver's Safety Program

In association with the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), GBU promotes AARP’s Driver Safety Program. Designed to meet the specific needs of older drivers, this program covers age-related physical changes, declining perceptual skills, rules of the road, local driving problems and license renewal requirements. AARP has offered this course in the classroom for 25 years and now offers the same course online.

The classroom course fee is only $12 for AARP members and $14 for nonmembers. Most classroom courses are taught in two four-hour sessions; some one-day courses and weekend courses are also held. You must contact the course location or instructor to pre-register for the course. To find an upcoming course in your area, you can contact GBU for assistance or go to www.aarp.org\families\driver_safety.

The online course fee is only $15.95 for AARP members and $19.95 for non-members. The online course has the same valuable information and strategies for safe driving as the classroom course but is self-paced and interactive.

The Department of Transportation and Insurance of most states have endorsed this program and request that automobile insurance companies provide a premium discount to AARP’s Driver Safety Program graduates. If you and your spouse are listed on the same insurance policy, you must take the course together to receive the insurance premium discount.

As a fraternal benefit, GBU will reimburse a member half of the course fee after he/she has completed the course! Just send in a copy of your receipt/certificate and we will mail you a check for half the cost.
