What does the 1st CENTRAL Connect car insurance app detect and measure?
The 1ST CENTRAL Connect app detects and measures a number of things, including:
Phone usage while driving
The app will detect if you are using your phone whilst you are driving. This will affect your driving score and may lead to cancellation. It’s important to tell us if a passenger has been using your phone or it could negatively impact your score. You can do this quickly and easily in the app.
Speeding
Your driving score will be affected if you go over the speed limit. Always keep an eye on your speed and be aware of what the speed limit is. Excessive speeding may result in the cancellation of your policy.
Braking
The app will detect any hard or fast braking you make. Allow yourself enough time to brake gradually, so you have plenty of time to react.
Cornering
Quick or hard turns when taking a corner can affect your driving score. So, always try to drive smoothly and precisely around corners.
Hard acceleration
Your driving score will be affected if you accelerate too quickly. Smooth acceleration is best, it not only gives you more time to spot hazards and but it uses significantly less fuel – saving you money in the long run.
