ETS Forum for Montana

Hello Hannah, Unfortunately no — Montana state-approved defensive driving courses require completion of all chapters in order, with a minimum time per page set by the curriculum. There is no test-out option. The reasoning: - The course has to meet a state minimum to count toward court-ordered resolution - Skipping chapters would invalidate the certificate The good news: experienced drivers usually move through quickly, completing a typical 4-6 hour course in one focused sitting.

Hello Bradley, Montana does not require a statewide insurance discount for defensive driving completion, but most major Montana carriers offer one voluntarily, especially for drivers 55 and older. To find out: - Call your insurer and ask about a 'defensive driving' or 'mature driver' discount - Have the certificate ready to email or upload - Ask for the percentage and expiration date in writing If they do not offer one, it is worth shopping carriers — discounts are commonly 5-10 percent for 2-3 years.
