Fun and Engaging Course

Our New York State DMV Approved defensive driving course is sponsored by the National Point and Insurance Reduction Course, initially created by the Improv Comedy Club. We believe in “edutainment–” learning through entertainment, making our classes anything but boring. You always learn more when you actually stay awake!

Driving Expertise and Experience

Teaching since 2014, and now with over 3,000 students taught per year, founder, creator, and instructor Ray Ammerman’s experience and fun delivery has earned a 5-Star Google review rating. In fact, Safe Driver Academy is enormously proud to be NYS’s Top-Ranked course.

Get to Know Safe Driver Academy: NYS’s Top-Rated Defensive Driving Course

Safe Driver Academy takes a fun approach in its commitment to helping drivers of all ages–from 16 to 101–master safer driving with a concentration on the psychology of driving. The goal is that you become a better, safer, happier driver. Take the stress out of your commute and travels!

Course completion also reduces your auto and motorcycle insurance premiums by 10% for three years. Plus, completion also reduces up to 4 violation points from your driving record.

Our instructor Ray was recruited by a fellow Improv instructor who attended a public event that Ray was emceeing. His clever humor, attention-grabbing and retaining skills, and his ability to engage and hold an audience proved the perfect fit for NYS’s only approved humor-based course.

Testimonials

I am a defensive driving instructor in New York City. As an instructor, we have to re-certify every two years… I signed up to recertify with Ray. I have taken defensive driving classes before, but none equaled the caliber of entertainment and education of Safe Driver Academy. I am not easily impressed, but when I am due again, I might just travel back to Buffalo!

You have to see this guy! You don't have a chance to drift off into a daydream. He is a gift to Buffalo!

Ray made this class entertaining and informative. He’s got a great personality and an even better singing voice. He was quick with the certificate turnaround and I actually learned a thing or two from him. I would definitely recommend his class! I went with my dad, who was named the class valedictorian. What a hoot!

Christina Webb

I would like to say, that at 74 years old, this was the "BEST" Safe Driving Course I have ever taken. Ray kept your interest through all segments of the course. He definitely reviewed many of the segments of Safe Driving that we all know but gave us a different and positive perspective of how to handle or address each situation. As a retired Safety Director, if I had known of Ray back then he would have been at the top of my list to call.
