LOS ANGELES, May 13 /PRNewswire/ -- It sounds ludicrous at first, but
so did Earth Shoes, car phones and kiwi as a garnish.
In keeping with its commitment of promoting driver safety and providing
the state's motorists with enhanced customer conveniences, New Jersey Motor
Vehicle Commission (MVC) approved a partnership with Interactive Education
Concepts, LLC (IEC) to offer online comedy-based defensive driving and
Point and Insurance Reduction courses for New Jersey drivers.
Improv had gained its fame in a driver training field in the early
80's, when its founder Gary Alexander had partnered with the famous Improv
Comedy Club to create interactive and fun edutainment traffic school and
defensive driving programs for Los Angeles motorists.
Based on a simple notion that when you enjoy the learning process you
simply learn more, Alexander has grown Improv to one of the largest and
most respected driver training schools in the Country. Since then more than
a million students have taken Improv's classes in both classroom and online
settings for ticket dismissal, insurance discounts and court ordered
defensive driving . Improv's teaching methodology has been backed by a
number of studies showing that its edutainment curriculum is effective in
reducing future crashes and moving violations.
"I can't guarantee none-stop laughs," Gary Alexander admits. "I will
shoot for less painful and simple".
New Jersey Motorists who successfully complete Improv's online
defensive driving course are eligible to have a two-point reduction on
their driver record and qualify for a mandatory, three-year insurance
discount.
The Improv' s online course is available to New Jersey motorists at
http://www.MyImprov.com for $48.95
The online course consists of 10 simple modules featuring a combination
of comedic, YouTube style video clips that are supported by easy to
navigate text and graphics covering a variety of driving subjects ranging
from basic traffic laws to more serious issues like DUI and seat belt use.
The real beauty of this course is that it's not only fun and effective; it
can also be completed at your own pace in as little as 5-minute increments.
Upon completion of all modules and passing of a simple 25 question quiz
covering course material you get a certificate of completion that can be
submitted to your Insurance Company to qualify for the mandated insurance
discount upon policy renewal.
MVC's Chief Administrator Sharon A. Harrington went on record stating,
"The MVC is constantly looking for ways to utilize the Internet to provide
services to all New Jersey motorists, and these defensive driving courses
are a perfect example." Harrington also said: "With these online courses,
motorists will receive the same invaluable instruction as they would in a
classroom, but will have the luxury of using their computer to log in and
out of the course at their convenience."
