Our next topic introduces a new concept developed by an auto insurer. In September 13, 2015 edition of thetimes-tribune.com and article titled ‘New company offering per-mile auto insurance’ composed by Jim Dino with the following details: “Auto insurance companies are always offering some kind of discount. One company won’t raise your rates after a crash. Another will reward you for a clean driving record. And another company offers to tailor your rates to your driving habits. Metromile launched per-mile auto insurance coverage in Pennsylvania, which the company says is the third-most expensive state nationwide for auto insurance.
The company has developed the insurance coverage so that low-mileage drivers are not subsidizing high-mileage drivers, Metromile CEO Dan Preston said. In their recent survey, that more than 60% of PA drivers drive less than 20 miles per day, and are considered low-mileage drivers who drive less than 10,000 miles per year. The survey also showed nearly 48% of PA residents drive less than 10 miles per day.
- On average, they found a 6% decrease in driving after they switched to per-mile car insurance.
- Overall, 54% of test-drivers drove less after switching to pay-per-mile insurance.
- Users who drove more than 20 miles per day, more than 80% drove less after switching.
With 253 million cars on the road in the U.S., if people drove 6% less:
- We could save $6 billion on road maintenance and $26 billion in accident-related costs.
- Would be 60 million metric tons less of CO2 emission.
- There would be 150 billion fewer miles driven.
Metromile tracks the number of miles a driver travels with a gadget that connects to the driver’s on-board diagnostic port and wirelessly obtains and transmits data to the Metromile driving app, which can attach to your smartphone. From the app, drivers can then access insights to personalized driving trends and diagnostics. Progressive Insurance’s Snap Shot program also offers a device to attach to your vehicle that notes the distance, time of day and how you drive.
Drivers in the big cities of Philadelphia & Pittsburgh have access to a wide variety of public transportation in addition to bike-friendly commute options. Those Pennsylvanians who own cars they rarely drive are overpaying for auto insurance. Pennsylvania marks the 2nd state on the East Coast to offer Metromile’s per-mile insurance. Founded in San Francisco 4 years ago, it was launched in Oregon. It is also found in California, Illinois, Washington & Virginia.” The complete article is available at this link.
