Black Box Insurance – monitoring your driving
Discover how reviewing your journeys can help you become a better driver and save money
How to review your driving
Once the black box is fitted, you can log into the app or portal to see how you drive on each journey, and to see on a map where you have driven. The box monitors speed, acceleration and braking. You will be able to see on the map where any excessive speeding, acceleration or braking events occurred – or if you have made a smooth journey with no faults at all.
This can help you to improve your driving skills. You won’t speed on the same road twice if you know you’re doing it. Now don’t worry – we’re not going to penalise you for one-off mistakes, because they happen! Your score is worked out at an average over the whole journey, so if you do need to brake harshly on one occasion you’ll be fine, so long as you don’t do it consistently.
Your driving score - We use a simple traffic light system to let you know how you’re driving – here is how it works:
GREEN JOURNEY
75 - 100% Score
You’ve got yourself a green journey. You’re driving is great!
AMBER JOURNEY
55 - 75% Score
You’ve got an amber journey! Don’t worry – it just means there’s aspects of your driving that could be improved.
RED JOURNEY
45% or less
You’ve got a red journey. We’ll work with you to identify the problem, so you can learn from the driving mistake. Don’t worry – one red journey won’t see you land an additional premium.
How to check your journeys
When you log into the app or portal, you can see your score for each journey, and can look at each journey individually. You’ll also get your overall score, which let’s you know on average how your driving is going.
If this stays high all year – you’ll earn an extra discount at renewal for safe driving. In addition to your score – the app and portal helps you find your car if its lost or stolen. Let’s face it, we’ve all forgotten where we’ve parked before.
