If you drive in Denver, Colorado, then you could benefit from Safeco RightTrack® by saving hundred of dollars with this cool driving device.
Safeco RightTrack is an app provided by the Liberty Mutual Group/SafeCo Insurance, one of the nations top auto insurance companies that offers insurance to motorists in Colorado. The purpose of the device is to more accurately track your driving habits to help you save you money on your insurance premiums. This is a much fairer strategy than basing your rate on your demographic, type of car and region you live in.
How Safeco RightTrack® Works
Insurance companies know that safe drivers are less likely to make a claim, but it’s hard to work out who is a safe driver, and who isn’t, just from demographic information (such as your age and where you live). It’s much more accurate to collect information about a driver’s habits and then use that to work out how much they should pay in premiums. Safe, cautious drivers who stay under the speed limit will, naturally, pay less than those who brake suddenly, take corners at high speed and disobey road safety laws.
There are two ways in which you can use Safeco RightTrack; either through their plug-in device or their mobile app.
- The plug-in device is a small device containing a suite of sense that Denver motorists install on their vehicles to track their driving. The device connects to an OBD-II port which is usually located under the dashboard.
- The other option is to install the Safeco Right Track mobile app. The app works by using your phone’s onboard sensors to track your driving performance. The benefit of the app is that it is straightforward to download and install on either Android or iPhone devices.
How Much Can You Save In Denver With A RightTrack® Device?
The savings from installing a Safeco RightTrack ® device are substantial. SafeCo Insurance Reviews says that it will apply a discount of between 5 and 30 percent, depending on its interpretation of the data. The cuts are automatically applied to your policy, based on your driving behavior – there’s no need to call the company or negotiate rates.
How Can You Get A Safeco RightTrack® Device?
If you’ve decided to have a Safeco Right Track device fitted, how can you make it work for you and get close to the maximum 30 percent off your monthly premiums?
- Drive Less Often – Insurance companies know that the further you drive, the more likely you are to have an accident at some point. The less you drive, therefore, the higher your discount should be, all else equal.
- Avoid Hard Braking – Insurance companies consider hard braking dangerous. You might just like braking hard, but from the perspective of the insurer, it’s more likely because you’re not paying attention to the road ahead. Hard braking increases your chances of being shunted from behind and also ramming into vehicles queued up ahead. If you want your premiums to fall, then it’s best avoided.
- Drive Less At Night – Driving at night in Denver, Colorado, between midnight and 4 am is more dangerous than during the daytime. Limit your driving to the day if you want to cut costs.
- Don’t Accelerate Rapidly – Rapid acceleration is a proxy for aggressive driving and could be an indication of your overall road temperament, including your propensity to perform dangerous overtaking maneuvers.
What About Your Personal Data?
Although the Safeco system collects a lot of data about your driving habits, it won’t affect your ability to get insurance in the future. Personally identifiable information – such as the data transmitted from your plug-in device to Liberty Mutual Group/Safeco Insurance – is not distributed to other parties outside of the company.
Safeco RightTrack®, therefore, offers Colorado drivers a low-risk way to reduce their premiums, especially if you follow safe driving habits.
