Black box car insurance could be the best deal for you

Most motorists want the best deal they can get on their motor insurance, and if you've ever read the finance pages in newspapers or watched consumer watchdog programmes on TV, you may have heard money saving experts talking about black box car insurance.

It might have been called telematics insurance or GPS insurance – maybe even pay-as-you-drive cover – but all these types of car insurance mean one thing; the insurer will require a small data recording/transmitting device to be fitted in the insured vehicle to ascertain certain details about all the journeys made.

Black box car insurance makes sense for young drivers
Young drivers between the ages of 17-24 are often said to be the most likely to be involved in a car accident, and certain road safety statistics may substantiate this, but at insurethebox we know that not all young drivers are irresponsible or dangerous motorists and we believe our brand of car insurance offers inexperienced and new drivers a chance to obtain realistically priced cover.

We can do this because our telematics device, the Clear Box, shows us how each driver is behaving on the road. We can then offer advice to help our policy holders drive more safely and award incentives for every positive driving trait they display.

Low mileage drivers benefit also
And what about those drivers who only make short journeys once in a while, why should they pay the same for a year's car insurance as someone who drives 10,000 miles per year? Well, at insurethebox, we don't think that's fair either, so our policy holders buy 6,000 Base Miles at the start of their policy and if that's all they need for their year's driving, then they don't have to pay us a penny more (as long as their details don't change).

For those drivers who need to travel further, Top-Up Miles are available in handy bundles of 250, 500 or 1,000 miles, and are easily available through the insurethebox website or by a quick call to our customer service centre.
