Q. Thinking about taking an online defensive driving course?

A. I live in Texas and I have just finished a defensive driving course on www.idrivesafely.com. I didn't like my experience. First, it took way too much time. It has a clock on each page. You can not get to the next page without waiting for the clock to go to zero, even if you need only a fraction of the time on the clock to go through the page. It also not only has a final exam, which is not a big deal, it also has one or more tests after almost each page or video you go through. These test questions ask you about some little details on the page or video you just go through. It was very stressful for me to take the course, not because the course was so difficult, but because the strain on my eyes that I had to use to pay close attention to every little detailed statistics on the courses. It took me about 10 hours to finish the course. But these were not the worst part of the course. The worst part of the course was the frequent questions posed by the course trying to verify that you are really you, not someone else. By the end of the class, the company will have all the detailed information about your private life, including how many times you have married, how many kids you have, how many brothers and sisters you have, have you ever been arrested, etc, etc. When I called the company about it, a representative of the company said that they didn't really have the answer to many of the questions they asked in the first place. They just take your first answer to check again your answer latter when that question is asked again. When I asked them to delete all my answers to these questions by the end of the course, the representative refused to do so. Also he promised not to sell it to anyone else, but I doubt it. My course is over
