A FUNCTION OF OBSERVATION:
Black boxes in cars cut crashes by 20 per cent for young drivers (The Telegraph, 4/05/12)
Many insurance companies have brought in 'black box' telematics systems which keep track of speed and driving behaviour.Now Co-op Insurance has analysed the driving habits of 10,000 young drivers who have been fitted with the new technology and found that they were 20 per cent less likely to have a crash than those with standard insurance.Telematics customers also had less serious accidents, with a typical claim 30 per cent less than ordinary customers.
