Does Progressive offer a defensive driving discount?

Can I get a discount from Progressive if I take a defensive driving class? One of my friends suggested it, but he has a different type of insurance, so I’m not sure if it would work for me.

Yes!
Progressive
offers customers a discount of 5% to 15% for taking an approved defensive driving course. However, there are some requirements that you may need to meet in order to qualify for this discount:
  • You must be taking the defensive driving course voluntarily, not by court order.
  • You may need to meet an age requirement.
  • You may be required to have a
    clean driving record
    .
The qualifications will vary from state to state, so you’ll need to check with Progressive to learn more about whether or not this discount is an option for you.
