That's wonderful to hear, Christina — thank you for sharing! We're so glad the course helped you earn that insurance discount. We look forward to having you back!
NYSC DDC was a convenient and most comprehensive way of learning and conducting defensive driving course. I highly recommend the online course.

The information contained is fine and accurate. However, it is absolutely infuriating to wait for each module to end. Either give me the test up front so I can show that in fact I know the material, or don't make the sections ruined. I could have finished in a fraction of the time, even if I read entry single word slowly.

Thank you for the honest feedback, James. We understand the timed modules can feel frustrating — the pacing is in place solely to meet the mandatory time requirements set by New York State, which are required for the course to count toward your driving record. We appreciate your understanding and your patience in working through it.
This was simple to use and extremely convenient by allowing me to log in and out as many time as I wanted to. This is great if you have a busy schedule as you can do a few minutes here and there. Just as long as you finish within 30 days. And with the 10% insurance discount it's money in the bank. This is a no brainer. I HIGHLY recommend this.
