They want me to notarize some sort of form before they give me my certificate. Considering covid19 and the fact that it was not mentioned anywhere on the website when I signed up, I find it absolutely ridiculous. Their service is rude and hung up on me.
This course makes people think before get in the a car as driver and a passenger. The emergency situation was helpful.
The videos is to old. I think if they have more updated new videos it will be more interesting to watch.
This is a very good way to help people who can't sit in a classroom because of work or other commitments
This company falsely advertises a $25 dollar course but in reality they try to swindle you out of more. To get your certificate they present two main checkout options which are both an extra $25. Oh but the tiny hidden check box underneath those two options is actually free. Then once you realize you've been swindled and you go to customer service after checking every part of the website to find details about hidden fees only for them to be disrespectful and keep going with scummy ways and say that everything is provided on the website when it's CLEARLY NOT! If I could I'd reverse the charges, null the certificate and take the 6 hour course on another website to avoid giving this company my money.
This course in very helpful to everyone specially if we don't know about the restriccion on the road or even on the higways
Horrible program They are requiring paper work that other programs don't and keep trying to sell you unnecessary stuff. And required that I rate them
After paying the $35 to take the class at the end they will scam you and charge you an additional $25 to download it. Don't use this Defensive Driving.com
Not bad. Easy and efficient. Love not having breaks after waiting an hour. Works well with my schedule. Very busy schedule. I can log in and out as I please.
Great videos. Very informative. Would highly recommend. Was not boring and kept my attention through out the whole 6 hours.
These videos hold so much information about being a defensive driver. The only issue I had was the video stopped after every 2 minutes of playing until I had to refresh the page Everytime it took double the time to finish the course
This course is also good for auto insurance discount! There were a few glitches! I had to reload the videos several times! The last video is dated, but effective!
After doing the boring 6 hours outdated course (well there is so much fun you can add to a defensive driving course), you will do your tests and after you pass guess what? YOU HAVE TO PAY AN EXTRA $25 TO DOWNLOAD OR PRINT YOUR CERTIFICATION! No kidding, and they wont even mention that until you are done with the course meaning you will have to commit yes or yes because you don't want your 6 hours to be wasted. This is intentional dishonest behavior that should be called as it is, a SCAM! I can't believe so many people rate this good knowing this, meaning most of the reviews are a scam. God I hate dishonest practices like this one!
Constantly bugging me about ordering a driving record at a much higher cost than the state court cost, charging $10 more than the state's set rate and charging a $10 fee for a simple download on top of that is absolutely ridiculous. On to of that, a two week delivery time for free delivery of a certificate is ludicrous. I won't be using your service again or recommending it.
Good refreshing lessons, i love the lesson, when driving on the ice, because i live in houston texas, i know the weather is most of the time hot, but now we started seen some snow during the winter.
I did learn also when you drive fast it will take more distance to stop than when you drive slow, the distance it sort
Does defensive driving course was really easy and fast and it was easy to do at home and I didn't have to do it all at once I could come back if I needed to leave it at any time so I think that's what makes it stand out amongst the rest
This course was easy to use. The course was also very affordable. I found the course very informative.
