4/2/13 - Local senior centers will be offering a class through the AARP starting this month to help seniors with their driving skills. The Drive Safer Longer course aims to teach seniors about how the effects of aging, such as problems with hearing, vision, and response time, can affect how they drive, as well as how to cope with them. It will also cover aggressive driver, large trucks, new safety features, and other things that can prove challenging to older drivers. The program typically costs $12 for AARP members, but through the assistance of the Livingston County United Way it is being offered to Livingston County residents free of charge. It will be offered at the Howell Senior Center on April 23rd and 25th, the Hamburg Senior Center May 13th and 14th, Hartland May 20th and 21st, and Brighton on June 10th and 12th. Space for the class is limited to 15 people per senior center, and registration is required. Contact a senior center for information on how to register. That information is contained in the document posted below. (TD)
