    Wondering why your vehicle insurance rates are going up?

    Because your driving habits are being reported...

    Big Brother is watching you. Might even be riding with you too.

    Big brother refers to the government last I checked my insurance wasn’t the government, the article also states this is an “opt in” on the individual’s side.

    I have a app on my phone from Plymouth Rock Ins co. Its a driving app that tracks you and you get rated for each trip. The benefit is I get "rewards" for using it and good driving. I get about $50-100/yr off gas or Amazon GC. If I drive like an a-hole, it shows and it does keep me mindful to slow And our annual premiums reflect the good driving

    Straight liability insurance, I can buy another 2006 cheaply, maybe even move up a few years, just have to stay 10 years behind current year models to keep yearly licenses taps cheap.

    Just disable the Internet connectivity if your car has it, can't track you if it can't phone home.

    Just wish they had a zapper for left lane highway drivers. Small amount of taser to get their asses out of the passing lane.

    I think it’s more to do with auto thefts and crashes by these kids. Our news is full of them every day. I live 40 miles north of Milwaukee and won’t even go there.

    I was just informed my insurance was going up because my Grandson lives here, no license and does not drive. It was reported to the insurance company by the same LEXISNEXIS that was in the post. My questions what in the hell does a company in London, England have to do with anything here, other than manipulate prices.

    This. And a huge volume of accidents being caused by young drivers texting and playing with their smart phones while driving.

    I wonder how many people thought the govt would have access to their DNA when they sent samples to Ancestry.com and the like. Two of my family members submitted their samples so I probably can't rape or murder anyone.
    Some people are so judgemental. You can tell just by looking at 'em.--Some random meme
