What is a refresher driving course?

I’ve been in three accidents in the past year and I’m on the cusp of losing my license. My friend told me that I should take some refresher driving classes to avoid any more accidents or tickets. What is a refresher driving course and is it worth it?

If you’re frequently
getting into accidents
, your friend has a great idea! A refresher driving course is comprised of optional lessons that help you brush up on your driving knowledge.
Generally speaking, these lessons are about $50 to $80 per hour, but the benefits you get are numerous:
  • Redeveloping basic and intermediate driving techniques
  • Learning the rules of the road to a greater degree
  • Learning how to drive in both the city and the country
  • Keeping up to date with the latest driving laws in your area
  • Improving good driving habits
Plus, you might be eligible for car insurance discounts by taking these lessons. So in just a few short months, the courses might even pay for themselves.
With accidents on your record, you’re likely overpaying for car insurance. Shop around for a better-priced policy by using the
