Trusted by Thousands
Thousands of senior drivers have given us 5-star reviews.
California drivers 55 and older can save up to 15% per year on auto insurance for three years after completing a Mature Driver Improvement course.
To keep the discount going, simply take a Renewal Course every three years.
Discount amounts vary by insurer. California law allows each insurance company to set the exact percentage, and drivers with poor records may not qualify.
For the most accurate estimate, contact your insurance company and ask how much you could save over a three-year period.
Example 1
Annual premium: $1,200
10% discount: Save $120 per year
Three-year savings: $360
Example 2
Annual premium: $1,800
15% discount: Save $270 per year
Three-year savings: $810
Even a modest discount can add up to hundreds of dollars in savings over time.
How to Get Your Senior Auto Insurance Discount
Follow these 5 simple steps to qualify for your senior auto insurance discount:
Step 1: Check Your Savings
Contact your insurance agent or company to ask how much you could save over three (3) years after completing a Mature Driver course.
Step 2: Choose and Register for a Course
Initial Course (6.5 hours): For drivers who have never taken a Mature Driver Course
Renewal Course (4.0 hours): For drivers who completed an Initial or Renewal course within the past 4 years (with us or another provider)
Step 3: Complete the Course
Step 4: Receive Your Certificate
Step 5: Send Certificate to Your Insurer
You and your spouse can take the course together on one computer or tablet.
Here’s how it works:
Note: You can only take the course together if you are enrolled in the same type of course (e.g., Initial with Initial or Renewal with Renewal).
Mature Driver Improvement Courses are California DMV-licensed programs designed for drivers age 55 and older. These courses help refresh your knowledge of current traffic laws and defensive driving strategies so you can drive with greater confidence and safety.
What’s the Difference Between a Mature Driver, Safe Driver, and Defensive Driver Discount?
In most cases, there’s no real difference. Insurance companies use terms like Mature Driver Discount, Safe Driver Discount, or Defensive Driver Discount to refer to the same type of senior auto insurance discount.
These discounts are typically offered to drivers age 55 or older who complete a qualified Mature Driver Improvement Course.
You must take the 'Initial' course if you have never taken a California Mature Driver course.
You can take the 'Renewal' course if you already completed a California Mature Driver Course from us or another licensed company and your certificate is not more than four years old. If the date on your previous certificate is more than four years old, you must retake the 'Initial' Course.
All California insurance companies are required by law to accept our Official California DMV Mature Driver Certificate as proof of course completion. California law, however, allows insurance companies to determine the percentage of your premium reduction. Your insurance company can refuse to give a reduced rate to those who have poor driving records. Contact your insurance company to learn how much you will save prior to taking our course.
