Having a Black Box Fitted in Your Taxi

Over the past year the insurance industry has been insistent on pushing the black box, a device that monitors the behaviour of drivers on the road.

Mounted on the dashboard or under a seat the camera box provides insurers with an insight into the customers driving profile, having more to work with when arriving at premiums in the future.

Not only do these boxes record such actions as breaking and speeding but they also save them automatically, allowing there to be a backlog of data in which insurers can study and refer back to in times of dispute.

The reconstruction of the past allows insurers as well as the police to determine the truth in claims put forth to them, a subject that has been an issue since the beginning of insurance.

Where many feel that they are being spied on and reject the notion of installing one, we at Insureyourtaxi.co.uk feel that the benefits dramatically outweigh the negative attributes.

It is not unheard of that people who are not at fault for an accident end up penalised as a result of insurers lack of concrete evidence.With a black box fitted in your vehicle you will never have to worry about being wrongly accused of driving recklessly, having the device as validation of exactly how you drive.

This new introduction therefore takes the pressure off of eyewitnesses and low quality CCTV, providing insurers with an actual account of accidents.

Many insurers, including Insure Your Taxi, are offering substantial discounts to drivers opting to fit a black box in their car, seeing such drivers as less of a risk than those not wanting to be monitored.

If you build up a profile of having a black box in your car then you will undoubtedly be rewarded as time goes on, with premiums lowered as a result of your proven admirable driving.

If you have any questions about the black box then please do not hesitate to contact Insure Your Taxi today and allow us to talk you through all that the black box involves.
