How can I get proof that I took and passed the Safe Driver Training Course?
Often times, in order for you to receive a discount on your auto insurance, you will need to provide them with proof of you having taken and passed a defensive driving course within the past 3 years. The safe driver training course is a defensive driving course. Once you have passed the online version of this course, you will have the option of purchasing a certificate, for an additional $3.50. You can log in at a later time to purchase your certificate.

If you have any difficulty or additional questions, please contact the National Safety Council directly at 1-800-775-1484 or help@safetyserve.com .

How long is the Safe Driver certificate valid?
The certification is valid for 3 years. After that time, it can be renewed. Should the certification expire while you are at Emory and you still need to drive on behalf of the University or an organization, you will be required to take the exam again. back to top

I already took a defensive driving course outside of Emory. Is that enough?
In most cases, if an individual takes a defensive driving course from another agency, for reasons unrelated to Emory at the time, we will recognize that course as long as the following 3 conditions are met:

The course taken was an actual defensive driving course;
The course must have been taken less than 3 years prior to the date that the driving activity for Emory will take place;
Proof of completion (such as a certificate of completion) for that course must be submitted to your defensive driving coordinator at least 5 business days prior to the date that the driving activity for Emory will take place.

What if something in my driving record prevents me from getting approved? What happens if I do not pass the online exam?
In the event that something in your driving record prevents us from approving you to drive, your payment will be returned to you immediately.

In the event that you do not pass the online exam, you will be given one chance to take the exam again, free of charge.
