straight forward and informative. I would add a section on round abouts as no one seems to educate on the older motorist with the proper approach and behavior.

4 stars instead of 5

The reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was because I expected that the Safe Motorist to send the Certificate automatically to the Insurance Company (since they required the Policy number when registered) and not have us to manually download and email the certificate to the Insurance Company.

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback, Michelle! We understand the expectation — it would certainly be more seamless if the certificate went straight to your insurer. While our current process requires you to download and send it directly, we've noted your suggestion and appreciate you sharing the idea.

It's hard to login and get going

It's hard to login and get going. It advertised as at your own pace but have to do at one time so that's not really at my pace.

Thank you for the honest feedback, Jessica. We're sorry the login experience was frustrating — we'll look into improving that. Regarding the course pace, some state programs require continuity, and we could do better communicating that upfront. We appreciate you sharing this!

Good information was well organized

Good information was well organized. The voice recording recognition was a bit much. But overall liked completing it when I had time.

Pay extra for certificate of completion???

Good information. Good refresher. The only thing I felt “meh” about was the certificate of completion… Once I had completed the course and passed the final exam I had the option to pay an additional $10 if I wanted to download my certificate of completion immediately. I chose to wait a few days until I could download it for free. It just seemed like a great way to charge an additional fee, if a person wanted to avoid the inconvenience of logging back in later to receive the certificate of completion.

Affordable and informative

Convenient, clear and concise course. I was able to certify online at my own pace.
For new boat owners or longtime operators, this course has a lot to offer.
Quite affordable for all the information given.
