We understand that driving is a privilege. We exercise our privilege to drive everyday and we don't take this privilege for granted. There are times, however, that the rules of the road slip our minds and we are in need of little refreshers. Generally, the receipt of a driving citation seems like the perfect time to take in a refresher course. We don't mind these refresher courses so much but we do have a problem when these courses impose on our daily lives. We simply don't have the time to allot 6 hours straight to sit in a classroom to be reminded of what we likely learned in driver's education. We would much rather be fed the course in doses that are convenient for our active schedules. Thank goodness there is Defensive Driving Solutions.
