On Saturday, November 8, the Petersburgh Public Library will sponsor a National Traffic Safety Institute Traffic Survival Workshop. The class will be held from 9 am to 3:30 pm at the Petersburgh Town Hall. The cost of the class is $40, part of which is a tax-deductible donation to the Library’s building renovation fund.
Completion of the class will allow NYS drivers of all ages, who are the principal operators of a motor vehicle, to save a minimum of 10% off their liability and collision insurance for three renewal years. Check with your insurance carrier for details about savings on your own policy. Drivers may repeat the class every 36 months. Those who finish the class will be mailed a certificate to present to their insurance carrier. In addition, those who complete the program can subtract 4 violation points from their driving record, under most circumstances, if the points were accumulated during the 18 months prior to taking the class.
Those who wish to participate are asked to notify the Library by October 31. Please include your phone number and other contact information when you register in case we need to reach you. Mail your check for $40 made out to the Petersburgh Public Library to the Library at PO Box 250, Petersburgh, NY, 12138, or stop in during Library hours, Monday-Friday from 2 to 5 pm, Wednesday until 9 pm and Saturday from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm. You can also register by calling the Library at 658-2927 during regular Library hours.
On the day of the class, there will be a half-hour break for lunch. You may bring your own lunch or bring money to order from the local pizza and sub shop.
