*According to a 2024 survey conducted by AARP and American Directions Research Group of 1,522 New York course participants, on average New York drivers insuring two vehicles reported saving an estimated $100 on their auto insurance premium after taking the AARP Smart Driver™ course, based on a 6-month policy. Savings may vary for each course participant based on other factors, including the number of drivers in the household, other applicable discounts such as combined home/auto policies, and variations in premium costs due to the value of each car and individual driving histories. Other restrictions may apply. Consult your agent for details regarding your potential savings.

‡Upon completing this course, and if you are the principal operator of a motor vehicle, you may receive a 10% reduction in the base rate of your automobile liability and collision insurance premiums each year for three years. You may be eligible to reduce as many as four points on your driving record. Point reduction can only be credited once every 18 months and does not affect actions mandated by statute or revocations already in place. Other restrictions may apply. Consult your agent for details. Upon registration, you have 30 days to complete the course at your own pace.
