What Is the Missouri Safety Center and Why Does It Approve the DIP Course?
The Missouri Safety Center (MSC) is the state agency at the University of Central Missouri that administers the Missouri Driver Improvement Program. It sets the requirements that all DIP course providers must meet and maintains the official list of approved providers.
What the Missouri Safety Center Does
The MSC reviews and approves all online and in-person DIP course providers operating in Missouri. To be on the approved provider list, a course must:
Be based on Missouri Revised Statutes §302.302
Meet or exceed the National Safety Council's DDC-8 (8-hour Defensive Driving Course) curriculum standard
Meet a minimum of 8 clock hours
Submit to annual site reviews by the MSC
The MSC also maintains the official provider list that courts, the FCC, and the Missouri DOR reference when verifying course approval.
Is Driving Logic Approved by the Missouri Safety Center?
Yes. Driving Logic is an approved Missouri DIP provider listed on the MSC's official provider list under provider number OL027.
Why Does This Matter to You?
You must take a course from an MSC-approved provider for your completion to count toward the DIP benefit. Taking a course from an unapproved provider — even if it covers similar content — will not satisfy your court or FCC requirement and will not result in point prevention.
Always confirm that the provider you choose is listed on the MSC-approved list before enrolling.
