Naperville Police Offering Driver Safety Program

The Naperville Police Department is partnering with AARP to offer a “Driver Safety Program,” which will take place next month.

This classroom driver refresher course, designed for drivers age 50 and older, has assisted millions of mature drivers to stay safe, according to the Naperville Police Department. 

The classes will be held on Monday, June 10 and Tuesday, June 11 from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Naperville Police Department. Participants must attend both days. There is a $14 fee for the course ($12 for AARP members).

Topics include: Understanding the normal effects of aging on driving and practical ways to compensate for those changes; driving strategies for the mature driver; identifying the most common crash situations and how to avoid them; and an update on the rules of the road, vehicle accessories, and local traffic hazards. The objective of the course is to help participants drive safer and therefore keep their licenses longer.

Please register in advance by mailing your name, address and phone number, along with a check made out to AARP to:
