HUDSON RIVER COMMUNITY CREDIT UNION OFFERS ONLINE DEFENSIVE DRIVING COURSE

December 10, 2010 (Glens Falls, NY): Hudson River Community Credit Union is now offering an online defensive driving course. Members and non-members may register for the online class at www.hrccu.org for only $25.00 with a credit card (VISA®, MasterCard, American Exress, Discover). A portion of the registration fee will be donated to HRCCU’s Annual Credit Union Care for Kids Campaign to benefit area hospital pediatric programs.

Successful completion of this 6 hour course fulfills the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) approved Point and Insurance Reduction Program qualifications which provides a 10% reduction for three years of the motorist’s liability, no-fault and collision insurance premiums. If the motorist has a traffic ticket, it could mean point reductions on their driving record.

There is no final exam and you will receive a certificate of completion by the American Safety Council to present to your insurance provider. The council will also contact New York DMV to have the course entered on any participants’ driving records and it will automatically reduce up to four active points. HRCCU GR8 2B Young Members ages 16 to 25 who are a part of the First Time Auto Loan Buyers Program will receive a complimentary online defensive driving course voucher.
