You might want to be careful with your political views in the public sections. It's against the rules to get all politcal and also setting yourself up for a long heated argument which could lead to bans...

such as this...




but to the topic... so it's like these insurance monitors are not designed for sports cars. They want everyone to ride their brakes and run yellows not to trigger 'hard braking'

silly. so so so soooooooo silly. Not that sports cars (and most luxury car's for that matter) can stop under 110ft.

Or if you live downtown and have to constantly smash breaks cause of jay-walkers, random cyclists, pot holes, a-holes, cabbies and a whole bunch of other issues.

Yeah, I do not expect to receive any sort of discount with this device. It was free, and I got it as a joke - I am not one of those paranoid privacy nuts, so the humor of it all is not lost on me.

I have been driving 20 years and never had a single incident. I know I am a safe driver and I do not care what an insurance company thinks based on a silly generalization that a change in speed of 7 mph/s means you are slamming on your brakes.

The only time I drive my car aggressively is late at night when there's no traffic on the road, but they have this stupid idea that late night is the most dangerous time of day to drive. That's absolutely absurd, it's by far the safest if you are a seasoned driver.

not really... deer, drunk drivers, other dui's. its only safe at night while its safe. doesnt matter if you think youre seasoned or not. accidents are called accidents for a reason.

Drunk drivers are extremely easy to spot if you're paying attention. Much easier than spotting people texting during the daytime. And Deer might as well be extinct in Florida

Down here in southern Florida, it's actually old people that are the most dangerous thing on the road. They're only out while the sun's up, because they eat dinner and go to bed at 4 PM.

Skunks too - seeing a skunk in the middle of the road will definitely test your braking distance.

Always check other companies for prices. I have State Farm and Progressive was never even in the same ball park. Progressive and Geico and the others weren't close. Generally they were 50% to 100% more than I pay.
Seems like these devices are just gimmicks. State Farm has it also but my agent says don't bother. My rates are already the lowest they offer. If you have a good driving record these things will not help at all.
I had Progressive for my motorcycles but went to Dairyland which was half as much.
True Joy. Watching Flo and the Wendy's girl go off a cliff together.
