NY State Defensive Driving Course by IMPROV™ - Fun. Fast. Done.

Required courses have a reputation problem: boring slideshows, a monotone narrator, and a clock you keep refreshing. IMPROV® was built to fix all three, which is part of why more than 5 million drivers have already taken a course here, backed by 200K+ verified reviews and a 4.7 average rating on Shopper Approved. This New York program is built for drivers who need to reduce up to 4 points on a driving record and save on insurance, without losing an evening to it.

What This Course Includes

  • Reduce up to 4 points on your NY driving record
  • Save up to 10% on your auto insurance premium
  • 100% online, self-paced, works on any device
  • No final exam standing between you and your certificate
  • Certificate issued immediately after completion
  • Support 7 days a week via live chat, phone, or text

New York drivers who complete this course are eligible for both the point reduction and the insurance discount at the same time, which is part of why it consistently ranks among the most requested courses on the platform - one sitting, two separate benefits.

How the SPIDER Method™ Works

At the core of the course is our SPIDER Method™, a behavior-based approach to defensive driving developed with input from psychologists who study driver behavior. Instead of a list of rules to memorize, you learn to Scan, Predict, Identify, Decide, Execute, and Review every situation on the road - a simple sequence that helps you catch danger before it happens, not after, so the discount comes with a real safety upgrade attached to it.

Built by Writers, Not a Compliance Department

The content itself is written by professional Hollywood comedy writers, not a compliance department, which is why students consistently rate this course higher than the traffic school they took last time. You will get short video segments, interactive scenarios, and microlearning modules built to hold your attention in small bursts instead of one long lecture you tune out of by minute ten.

Self-Paced: No Timers, No Final Exam

There is no artificial timer forcing you to babysit a screen, and no final exam waiting at the end to trip you up. Start on your phone during a break, pick it back up on your laptop that night - progress saves automatically across every device, so a busy day never costs you your spot.

Once you finish, your certificate of completion is issued immediately and, in most cases, reported electronically to the NY DMV and your insurance provider on your behalf, so one less step lands on your plate.

What you see during enrollment is what you pay. No processing fees tucked into the fine print, no surprise charge for a certificate you have already covered - pricing here is upfront on purpose.

Questions do not have to wait until Monday. Live chat, phone, and text support run seven days a week, staffed by people who can pull up your specific account and answer a specific question, instead of reading from a script that does not quite fit your situation.

Other courses check a box and move on. This one is built to make an actual difference in how you drive, without eating your whole week to do it.

Enroll now and put your points and premium to work for you. Fun. Fast. Done.

How Much Will I Save?

As a New York resident, completing this course makes you eligible for a 10% discount on your auto insurance, good for 3 years.

Will I save more if members of my family take the course?

To maximize your savings, all family members who are a principal driver of a vehicle on the insurance policy can take the course. Each driver will receive a 10% discount on the base premium of their auto insurance policy. Please note that the discount can be applied to only one driver for each covered vehicle. To confirm the exact amount you will save, please contact your insurance agent.

How will it work?

It’s simple! Get started now with this free registration. Then complete the course (you’re guaranteed to pass). Once completed, we will mail your Certificate of Completion and report your successful completion to the NY DMV and provide you with a copy you can send to GEIC. Your guaranteed 10% auto insurance discount will apply retroactively to the date you finished your course.

How long is the course?


Our course meets the New York time requirement of 6 hours, but the total course time is 5 ½ hours, with 30 minutes allowed for breaks. The good news is that our course saves your progress as you go, which allows you to complete it at your own pace. You can log in and out as many times as you need without ever losing your progress.

Can I take this course for insurance reduction if I am NOT a GEICO customer?

Yes, most insurance companies will give you a discount on your auto premium for completing a Defensive Driving/Insurance Discount course. In some states, insurance discounts are mandatory for all insurance companies. If you are insured with another carrier, please register here.
