The Island Now

The Town of North Hempstead will be sponsoring 10 upcoming AARP defensive driving courses at Clinton G. Martin Park in 2016.

“These AARP classes will allow our residents to reduce their insurance costs, cut penalty points and increase their knowledge of driving safely,” Bosworth said.

The classes, open to drivers age 50 and older, will be held on Feb. 6, March 12, April 9, May 14, June 4, June 18, Sept. 10, Oct. 15, Nov. 12 and Dec. 12 in 2016 from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. 

To register for an AARP defensive driving class, please make checks payable to AARP. The cost is $20 for members and $25 for non-members.

All participants must be age 50 or older. Please be sure that checks contain the participant’s name, address, phone number and the date of the class they wish to attend. Seating for each class is limited.

Please mail all checks to: Defensive Driving Coordinator, Department of Community Services, 1601 Marcus Ave., New Hyde Park, N.Y. 11040.

Once checks are received, a seat will be reserved in the participant’s name and a letter confirming registration will be mailed to their address.
