so i just started the course, and it is (of course) extremely geared towards senior drivers. does anyone know for certain that this course works to reduce auto insurance premiums for those who aren't seniors also? if it doesn't, i'd rather not waste the next 8 hours clicking "next"...

thanks!
Its funny how "senior" it is.  Probably would have been better off taking a regular course since I dont need to spend so much time learning about how my age affects my driving after 60 years old. But $5 is a pretty good deal.
I see no reason why the certificate they give you wouldnt be the same as any certificate and should work for your insurance

How is it "geared towards seniors"?

Although for the insurance company I am sure it doesn't make a difference so long as you get their certificate.

it basically talks about the affects of aging on your driving ability

I think this is an awesome deal.  It will help people to handle any emergency situation with ease.  The best part is the flexibility offered to people to take the course online.

Not if you start it before going to bed and have an auto-mouse-clicker installed ;)

They have different time limits for each frame before you can go to the next page. Additionally, make you fill out a whole bunch of personal questions at startup and occasionally ask you for answers so that someone else can't do it for you.
Its hard to fool them but its worth spending the time for the discount. Last year i saved about $200 on my policy and the course through Geico took me under 2 hours.

Does anyone know if I need to have my insurance through AARP to use their site?

Anyone have a discount code? Also how long does it take and do I have to really watch the whole thing.

:( Apparently in NJ you only get a discount on your insurance if the primary driver takes the course, so I just spent $14 for nothing.
