Defensive Driving Class Scheduled at Genesee’s Medina Campus Center

BATAVIA, NY (06/30/2008; 0958)(readMedia)-- A defensive driving course is scheduled for July 16 and 23 from 6:00 to 9:00 pm at Genesee Community College's Medina Campus Center, located at 11470 Maple Ridge Road (Route 31A). Participants may receive up to a four-point reduction on their driving record and a minimum 10% reduction in the base rate of their automobile and motorcycle liability insurance premiums each year for three years.

Points will remain on participant's records but are not counted in determining administrative actions. Point reduction does not affect mandatory actions such as license revocation for three speeding convictions within 18 months or existing suspensions or revocations. To receive lower insurance rates, participants must be listed as the principal operator of a vehicle.

Sponsored by the National Safety Council, this six-hour course has a fee of $44. Register online at www.genesee.edu/about/campuses/medina/noncredit.cfm or call the Medina campus at 585-798-1688.
