Auto Insurance Copmany systems are primarily based on past realized losses and the past record
of other drivers with similar characteristics. More recently, telematic systems
have been introduced whereby the actual driving performance of a given driver
is monitored and communicated directly to the insurance company. The insurance
company then assigns the driver to a risk class based on the monitored driving
behavior. An individual, therefore, can be put into different risk classes from
month to month depending upon how they drive. For example, a driver who drives
long distance at high speed in one month might be placed into a high risk class
for that month and pay a large premium. If the same driver drives for short distances
at low speed the next month, however, then he or she might be placed into a lower
risk class and charged a lower premium. Norwich Union is currently offering a
type of telematic auto insurance in the United Kingdom called Pay as You Drive.
This system employs a combination global positioning system (GPS) and cell phone
in a car to monitor driving performance and communicate risk factors to the Auto Insurance Copmany
. Drivers are offered a discount if they exhibit safe driving. Trials conducted
by Norwich Union in 2005 have found that young drivers (18 to 23 year olds) signing
up for telematic auto insurance have had a 20% lower accident rate than average.

In the 1990s Toyota began to branch out from producing mostly compact cars by
adding many larger and more luxurious vehicles to its lineup, including a full sized pickup, the
T100 (and later the Toyota Tundra), several lines of SUVs, a sport version of the Camry, known
as the Camry Solara, and the Scion brand, a group of several affordable, yet sporty,
automobiles targeted specifically to young adults. Toyota also began production of the world's
best selling hybrid car, the Toyota Prius, in 1997.
In the United
States, Progressive Corporation is offering a form of telematic auto insurance
to residents of Minnesota called TripSenseTM. The TripSense system consists of
a black box that the driver plugs into their car's OBD-II port. The black box
monitors the mileage driven, speed, time of day and other parameters, but not
the car's location. The user then checks the black box once a month on their home
computer. The home computer tells them if they qualify for a discount. If they
do, they can download the information to the insurance company and get the discount.
If they don't they do not have to download the information.
