Customers can receive savings of up to 30% on
their auto premiums for responsible driving habits
The Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV) today announced that
it has enhanced IntelliDrive, its usage-based auto insurance mobile
app. IntelliDrive provides customers with a better understanding of
their driving habits – and rewards them for safe driving – by
collecting and assessing data on behaviors such as hard braking,
rapid acceleration, speed, the time of day customers drive and now,
distracted driving.
The enhancements include:
- The ability to detect when customers interact with their mobile
devices to help combat distracted driving.
- A feature that captures the number of consecutive drives taken
without interacting with a phone.
- A user-friendly dashboard that allows drivers to track their
performance, and the ability to compare it with other drivers in
the household.
- Informative articles that provide safe driving tips.
- Enhanced savings for safe drivers.
“We’re committed to finding new, more sophisticated ways to
reduce distracted driving,” said Michael Klein, Executive Vice
President and President of Personal Insurance at Travelers. “The
latest version of IntelliDrive is an example of how we’re
innovating in this space. By zeroing in on dangerous behaviors like
texting, the app empowers our customers to earn a better rate on
their insurance while keeping our roads safer.”
IntelliDrive captures driving information for all enrolled
drivers in the household for 90 days to determine their overall
driving performance. Safe drivers can see savings of up to 30% on
their auto premiums at renewal, as well as savings of up to 10% for
new customers at the time of enrollment. In most states, riskier
driving habits can result in higher premiums.
The updated IntelliDrive app is now available in Illinois and
Oregon and will launch in additional states later this year. The
original program is still available to customers in most
states.
