Interesting yes, but I think they want to know too much about what we do,where we go and how we get there, untill the insurance companies say you must have one of these boxes then I will not have one.

too much of big brother around as it is (google for one)

I refuse to be monitored, spied upon, coerced or manipulated in any way...I am a FREE man.

They always seem to be targetting 'speed', although 'speed' and 'speeding' seem to be treated as the same thing. Is it really the speed that is increasing the number of accidents or the fact that risk takers are more likely to speed?

It also sounds like the person in charge of pricing isn't a particularly good or experienced driver too. He has said the following:

“When you are on a country road with a 60mph limit, you shouldn’t be doing anywhere near 60mph,”

In my opinion it is often safe to do more than 60mph, and I regularly do 60mph. When he said is true for many roads but certainly not all of them.

Interestingly, they seem to think that inexperienced drivers should use motorways more rather than rural roads as motorways are safer. Now, if this were to happen, then surely we'd have more accidents on motorways and less on rural roads? I think people are looking at statistics too much not not actually considering whether the drivers have the competence to join a motorway. Joining a motorway can be one of the most challenging things in my opinion as everybody else seems to be determined to get in front of you.
