The AARP Driver Safety Program is an 8-hour refresher course designed to help tune up driving skills and update knowledge of the rules of the road; learn about normal age-related physical changes, and how to adjust driving to allow for these changes; reduce traffic violations, crashes, and chances for injuries; drive more safely. The course is offered locally at senior centers and other locations. There is also an online version of the course. Most classes are taught in two, four-hour sessions spanning two days. Website offers search by zip code, and gives dates, times, and locations of upcoming classes.
