“Accident prevention courses help lead to safer roads and lower insurance costs for everyone,” said Acting New York State Insurance Superintendent Kermitt J. Brooks.
Brooks said DMV-approved courses must meet strict standards for the safe driving information presented and program effectiveness, whether provided online or in person.
Additional courses are expected to be approved in the future.
Accident prevention courses may be taken once every 36 months to maintain insurance reduction benefits.
