Driving

If you have been charged with a minor traffic violation in the 13th Judicial District (Bladen, Brunswick and Columbus counties, or any other county in that participates with the Defensive Driving program) you may elect to have your citation reduced by completing a Defensive Driving Course. This program is made available through Brunswick Community College and the Safety and Health Council of North Carolina to train motorists in the principles of defensive driving.

 

Brunswick Community College offers two Defensive Driving Courses and a BRC Motorcycle Course in PATHWAYS. If you are looking for a course that you do not see listed, contact [email protected].

BRC Motorcycle Course

The Basic Rider CourseSM is 22 hours and designed for beginning riders of all ages. It is also a great course to reintroduce yourself to riding if you are re-entering motorcycling after not riding for a few years. The course is mandatory for motorcyclists under 18 in NC and includes classroom and range/riding time. Practical riding skills are developed in a controlled, off-street environment. Also, participants under 18 must have a release form from both their school and their parent/legal guardian to take this course. Participants must attend all sessions fully to get credit for the class. Graduates of the course will receive a waiver card for the NCDMV. This waiver card provides an NCDMV endorsement on your license without having to take the NCDMV riding test. You must still pass the NCDMV written test and vision exam to get your complete endorsement. Graduates will also receive a completion card. This card could potentially qualify you for discounts on your insurance.
