We calculate an overall driving behaviour score. Which, if you improve on from month to month, is likely to earn you reductions on your car insurance premiums.

You can track your own scores through your personalised dashboard. This dashboard will provide you with daily updates on how you are doing on the road as well as how you can actually improve your safety as a driver.

As a first time driver, what happens if I drive poorly?

As long as you keep your acceleration, top speed and braking in check as well as only driving late at night rarely, you should be fine. i.e. your score shouldn’t drop.

However, if you begin to drive dangerously and aggressively, it is likely that your score will drop drastically resulting in an increase to your insurance premium costs.
