You May Have To Watch How You Drive After All
As we all know, the Connecticut Supreme Court has held that a rental car company could not install GPS systems in cars to monitor speeding and charge $150 per violation.
But here is even newer technology that is bound to catch on among rental companies and even insurers.
Look, I'm anonymous, so I can freely admit that I speed. But I also support the use of technology to improve the market. Insurers already use crude tools to figure out who is a bad risk: gender, age, driving history, car model, car color, etc. Why not let them use actual monitoring instead? Why should you subsidize people who drive dangerously?
