The videos and information were straight and to the point. All of the information was helpful and good reminders of what not to do and what to do when driving.

My Experience was great because I felt the I formation was taught well and the course was well Received. I think they should have Audio recording through all. The modules and testing and not just the beginning. It would be more helpful.

Thank you, Johnpaul! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the course and found the material well presented. The read-along feature is available throughout the full course, and we currently provide it as an optional enhancement for students who want audio on every module. We appreciate your feedback and will consider making it available to all students by default in the future. Thanks again for choosing Defensive Drivers Institute!

Wasn’t the best experience, it kept freezing and the page lagged a lot. 10/10 not a great experience & it seems to take a lot longer than 5 hours to complete this one.

Thank you, Jordan. We appreciate your honest feedback and are sorry to hear you experienced freezing and lag while taking the course. We’ll share this with our technical team to review and improve performance. The course length and timing are set to meet New York DMV requirements, but we’ll continue refining the experience to make it as smooth as possible. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

Solid material and questioning, at times instructions were unclear and the website locked me out of my account.
