Call 845-0569 The Battalion AUSTIN — Texas drivers who opt to take a defensive driving class to get a traffic ticket dismissed will soon be able to do so without leav ing the comfort of home. Two Houston entrepreneurs have teamed up with an Austin business to provide a method for taking the state-approved, six-hour course at home with the aid of videos and a minicomputer, both supplied by the company. Inconvenience is a chief reason only 8 percent of Texas drivers who are ticketed take defensive driving courses, said Phil Ward, president of SA Training Co. of Austin, which provides its safety course to more than 250 schools across Texas. Drivers who choose the take- home course have three days to complete it and may log on to the interactive computer system — via a toll-free phone line — at any hour. Another toll-free line has a live instructor on stand-by at all times to field questions from students. Since mid-January, the take home kits have been available only through two Houston outlets. More than 600 people have used them, said Scott Owens, one of the developers of the system. Ward said he believes all of the schools affiliated with USA Training — in cluding several in Austin — will have the equipment by the end of the summer. Owens said reaction from stu dents has been positive, even though the $40 course cost is more expensive than classroom in struction, which ranges from $ 1 5 to $30. The system includes a sim- ple-to-use computer and videos that feature music by ZZ Top and James Brown and appearances by Jerry Seinfeld, Hulk Hogan and other celebrities. The videos fea tures comedian Jeff Altman. “You mention to people a ‘take- home defensive driving course,’ and the light bulb goes off,’’ he said. "They think: ‘I can fast for ward the video. I can have some one take the test for me,’ But, hard as you might try, you can’t beat the system. Owens said safeguards were built into the system to the ticketed driver acttii one taking the course,am state requirement of sisi] instruction is fulfilled “We have a pool ofu validation questions,” said who formed US. Interact business partner Richard “When the studentsched equipment, they give usss formation about themself we access outside additici mat ion f rom what thei provided us, and we quiz dent on that for validate One validation quet example, is “What is ]m er's maiden name? to divulge other questios their proprietary nature. ■ The Texas Education which certified the syr: summer, put the take-hoir- through tne ringer to mat could not be duped, said? nar, senior director of ikl of Proprietary Schools, Education and Driver Trait “We tested the validate anisms by suing ourstafb our computer gurus,”s! “We told them that the: to cheat."

They don’t take advantage of tax deferral and wind up sending Uncle Sam money they could be saving for retirement. Fortunately, that’s a mistake you can easily avoid with TIAA-CREF SRAs. SRAs not only ease your current tax- bite, they offer a remarkably easy way to build retirement income—especially for the “extras’’ that your regular pension and Social Security benefits may not cover. Because your contributions are made in before-tax dollars, you pay less taxes now. And since all earnings on your SRA are tax-deferred as well, the money you don’t send to Washington works even harder for you. Down the road, that can make a dramatic difference in your quality of life. What else makes SRAs so special? A range of allocation choices—from the guaranteed security of T1AA to the diversified investment accounts of CREF’s variable annuity—all backed by the nation’s number one retirement system. Why write off the chance for a more rewarding retirement? Call today and learn more about how TIAA-CREF SRAs can help you enjoy many Happy returns. Benefit now front tax deferral.
