Yes. You can take the Virginia Driver Improvement Course to qualify for an auto insurance premium discount. Before enrolling, confirm with your insurance company that it offers this benefit and that you meet their eligibility requirements.
How to Use the Course for an Insurance Discount
Contact your insurance company first — confirm they offer a discount for completing a Virginia DMV-licensed driver improvement clinic and that you qualify
Enroll at drivinglogic.com and select Insurance as your reason for taking the course
Complete the course and pass the final exam
Download your DIC 552B certificate from your account at drivinglogic.com
Submit your certificate to your insurance company — Driving Logic does not do this for you
Important Rules
Driving Logic reports your completion to the Virginia DMV automatically — this applies to all students including insurance-purpose completions
You will not receive safe driving points if you take the course for an insurance discount — the two benefits are mutually exclusive in Virginia
If a court ordered you to complete the course, you are not eligible for an insurance discount from that completion
What Discount Can I Expect?
Discounts vary by insurance company and policy. Virginia law requires insurance companies to offer a discount to drivers age 55 and older who complete an approved course. For drivers under 55, discounts are at the insurer's discretion. Contact your agent for specifics.
