We are excited to offer our customers discounts to participate in the In Control Advanced Driver Training program. The program uses real-world situations to train instinctual reactions and help develop the muscle memory necessary to avoid crashes. While available to all drivers, the program has been measured to reduce crashes by 70% compared to new drivers who only attend traditional driver education.

Ways to Save You Money

The In Control Advanced Driver Training program has the potential to:

  • Save you money on your auto insurance policy. Some companies, including safety insurance companies, consider your having taken the In Control course a factor when setting your rate or giving a specific discount.
  • Learn advanced driving techniques to help you avoid an accident. Whether or not a specific discount is applied to your insurance premium, the knowledge you gain from the course will teach you how to prevent an accident. The accidents you can avoid because of what you’ve learned are the most significant savings—both monetarily and physically.
  • The current cost for All Ages, Family and Senior Classes is $350 for the first family member and $275 for each additional family member.

Ice Dams: A Winter Challenge for Homeowners

Read our blog post, Ice Dams: A Winter Challenge for Homeowners for some great tips on preventing ice dams and what to do in the case of ice dams on your roof. Ice dams are more than just an inconvenience—they can cause significant damage to your home. While prevention is the best strategy, ice dams can still form despite your efforts, so having a response plan is crucial. Ice dams occur when attic air warms to above freezing, causing snow on the roof to melt. As the water runs down the roof and reaches the colder edges, it refreezes, creating an ice dam. These dams block water from draining off the roof, causing it to pool and seep under shingles, into the attic, or along exterior walls.
