We are excited to offer our customers discounts to participate in the In Control Advanced Driver Training program. The program uses real-world situations to train instinctual reactions and help develop the muscle memory necessary to avoid crashes. While available to all drivers, the program has been measured to reduce crashes by 70% compared to new drivers who only attend traditional driver education.

Ways to Save You Money

The In Control Advanced Driver Training program has the potential to:

  • Save you money on your auto insurance policy. Some companies, including safety insurance companies, consider your having taken the In Control course a factor when setting your rate or giving a specific discount.
  • Learn advanced driving techniques to help you avoid an accident. Whether or not a specific discount is applied to your insurance premium, the knowledge you gain from the course will teach you how to prevent an accident. The accidents you can avoid because of what you’ve learned are the most significant savings—both monetarily and physically.
  • The current cost for All Ages, Family and Senior Classes is $350 for the first family member and $275 for each additional family member.

What You Learn at Hands-On Crash Prevention Training

During the one-time, 4 1/2-hour course, you’ll learn the following:

  • How to do a panic stop
  • Proper use of ABS brakes
  • Dangers of tailgating
  • Effects of speed on control
  • Handling a highway emergency
  • Dangers of distractions

Contact Us to determine your potential savings before taking the In Control Course. We look at your auto insurance and complete insurance package, which may include a home and umbrella policy, to determine savings. When we look at discount opportunities, we look at your overall insurance package—auto, homeowners, and umbrella policies. It’s essential to look at your insurance protection and not just one specific policy to determine your total savings.
