Methods of providing insurance savings based upon telematics and anonymous driver data

Description

FIELD

The present embodiments relate generally to telematics data and/or insurance policies. More particularly, the present embodiments relate to performing certain actions, and/or adjusting insurance policies, based upon telematics and/or other data indicative of risk or insured behavior.

BACKGROUND

Conventional insurance techniques and policies may be subject to inaccuracies due to limited information and/or inadequate risk mitigation or prevention. For example, conventional automobile insurance policies are based upon risk estimates using the age, location, and reported driving history (e.g., reported accidents) of a an insured driver. When such a policy covers multiple drivers (e.g., family members), estimates of risks associated with each driver are used, based upon typical drivers having similar demographic characteristics. Thus, conventional automobile insurance fails to accurately account for different risk levels posed by personal risk preferences and/or driving styles, as well as different risks associated with different usage levels of insured drivers. Conventional insurance techniques may also suffer from the lack of incentivizing the preferred types of behaviors; failure to properly identify risks associated with an individual; inefficient or ineffective customer communications; inadequate or incorrect behavior-based policies; and/or other drawbacks. The present embodiments may overcome these and/or other deficiencies.

BRIEF SUMMARY

The present embodiments disclose systems and methods that may relate to the intersection of telematics and insurance. In some embodiments, for example, telematics and/or other data may be gathered and used to determine risks associated with an insured vehicle or person. The data may be gathered from one or more sources, such as mobile devices (e.g., smart phones, smart glasses, smart watches, smart wearable devices, smart contact lenses, and/or other devices capable of wireless communication); smart vehicles; smart vehicle or smart home mounted sensors; third party sensors or sources of data (e.g., other vehicles, public transportation systems, government entities, and/or the Internet); and/or other sources of information. The data may further be collected or gathered from other vehicles (either directly or indirectly through vehicle-to-vehicle communication), infrastructure components, and/or other road side equipment. Insurance claims, policies, premiums, rates, discounts, rewards, deductibles, limits, and/or programs may then be adjusted based upon the risks determined from the telematics and/or other collected data. The determined risks may be applied to automobile insurance and/or other types of insurance. In some embodiments, the data may be received, risks determined, and/or insurance policies adjusted at a remote server.

In accordance with the described embodiments, the disclosure herein generally addresses systems, methods, and computer-readable media for using anonymous driver data to adjust driving risk. The system, method, or media may include (1) collecting anonymous driver data associated with driving behavior of a plurality of drivers; (2) collecting insured driving behavior data associated with the driving behavior of an insured driver; (3) determining a driving risk score associated with the insured driver by comparing the anonymous driver data with the insured driving behavior data; (4) determining an adjustment to an insurance policy associated with the insured driver based upon the determined driving risk score; and/or (5) causing the adjustment to the insurance policy to be implemented.

The anonymous driver data may indicate anonymous driver behavior associated with one or more road segments. The insured driving behavior data may be associated with the one or more road segments and/or may include telematics data generated by one or more sensors. The one or more road segments may include one or more of the following: a specific road, a specific section of a road, and/or an intersection.

The insurance-related benefits may further include other products and/or services. An insurance provider may: (9) incentivize low risk or less risky behavior for an insured; (10) provide recommendations that reduce risk and/or result in insurance savings for the insured; (11) provide intelligent vehicle routing in real-time that reduces the risk of a vehicle accident; (12) identify a level of risk or a driving behavior model for an insured based upon an analysis involving anonymous driver data; (13) apply driving behavior or a driving risk score for an insured to other types of insurance (home owners, renters, life, health, etc.); and/or provide other benefits, services, and/or products. The present embodiments may reward an insured for exhibiting risk-averse behavior in the form of lower insurance premiums or rates, or additional insurance discounts, points, and/or rewards.

I. Exemplary Telematics Data System

FIG. 1 illustrates a block diagram of an exemplary telematics system 1 on which the exemplary methods described herein may be implemented. The high-level architecture includes both hardware and software applications, as well as various data communications channels for communicating data between the various hardware and software components. The telematics system 1 may be roughly divided into front-end components 2 and back-end components 4.

The front-end components 2 may obtain information regarding a vehicle 8 (e.g., a car, truck, motorcycle, etc.) and/or the surrounding environment. Information regarding the surrounding environment may be obtained by one or more other vehicles 6, public transportation system components 22 (e.g., a train, a bus, a trolley, a ferry, etc.), infrastructure components 26 (e.g., a bridge, a stoplight, a tunnel, a rail crossing, etc.), smart homes 28 having smart home controllers 29, and/or other components communicatively connected to a network 30. Information regarding the vehicle 8 may be obtained by a mobile device 10 (e.g., a smart phone, a tablet computer, a special purpose computing device, etc.) and/or a smart vehicle controller 14 (e.g., an on-board computer, a vehicle diagnostic system, a vehicle control system or sub-system, etc.), which may be communicatively connected to each other and/or the network 30.

In some embodiments, telematics data may be generated by and/or received from sensors 20 associated with the vehicle 8. Such telematics data from the sensors 20 may be received by the mobile device 10 and/or the smart vehicle controller 14, in some embodiments. Other, external sensors 24 (e.g., sensors associated with one or more other vehicles 6, public transportation system components 22, infrastructure components 26, and/or smart homes 28) may provide further data regarding the vehicle 8 and/or its environment, in some embodiments. For example, the external sensors 24 may obtain information pertaining to other transportation components or systems within the environment of the vehicle 8, and/or information pertaining to other aspect so of that environment. The sensors 20 and the external sensors 24 are described further below, according to some embodiments.

In some embodiments, the mobile device 10 and/or the smart vehicle controller 14 may process the sensor data from sensors 20, and/or other of the front-end components 2 may process the sensor data from external sensors 24. The processed data (and/or information derived therefrom) may then be communicated to the back-end components 4 via the network 30. In other embodiments, the front-end components 2 may communicate the raw sensor data from sensors 20 and/or external sensors 24, and/or other telematics data, to the back-end components 4 for processing. In thin-client embodiments, for example, the mobile device 10 and/or the smart vehicle controller 14 may act as a pass-through communication node for communication with the back-end components 4, with minimal or no processing performed by the mobile device 10 and/or the smart vehicle controller 14. In other embodiments, the mobile device 10 and/or the smart vehicle controller 14 may perform substantial processing of received sensor, telematics, or other data. Summary information, processed data, and/or unprocessed data may be communicated to the back-end components 4 via the network 30.

The mobile device 10 may be a general-use personal computer, cellular phone, smart phone, tablet computer, or a dedicated vehicle use monitoring device. In some embodiments, the mobile device 10 may include a wearable device such as a smart watch, smart glasses, wearable smart technology, or a pager. Although only one mobile device 10 is illustrated, it should be understood that a plurality of mobile devices may be used in some embodiments. The smart vehicle controller 14 may be a general-use on-board computer capable of performing many functions relating to vehicle operation, an on-board computer system or sub-system, or a dedicated computer for monitoring vehicle operation and/or generating telematics data. Further, the smart vehicle controller 14 may be installed by the manufacturer of the vehicle 8 or as an aftermarket modification or addition to the vehicle 8. Either or both of the mobile device 10 and the smart vehicle controller 14 may communicate with the network 30 over link 12 and link 18, respectively. Additionally, the mobile device 10 and smart vehicle controller 14 may communicate with one another directly over link 16. In some embodiments, the mobile device 10 and/or the smart vehicle controller 14 may communicate with other of the front-end components 2, such as the vehicles 6, public transit system components 22, infrastructure components 26, and/or smart homes 28, either directly or indirectly (e.g., via the network 30).

The one or more sensors 20 referenced above may be removably or fixedly disposed within (and/or on the exterior of) the vehicle 8, within the mobile device 10, and/or within the smart vehicle controller 14, for example. The sensors 20 may include any one or more of various different sensor types, such as an ignition sensor, an odometer, a system clock, a speedometer, a tachometer, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a compass, a geolocation unit (e.g., a GPS unit), a camera and/or video camera, a distance sensor (e.g., radar, LIDAR, etc.), and/or any other sensor or component capable of generating or receiving data regarding the vehicle 8 and/or the environment in which the vehicle 8 is located.

Some of the sensors 20 (e.g., radar, LIDAR, ultrasonic, infrared, or camera units) may actively or passively scan the vehicle environment for objects (e.g., other vehicles, buildings, pedestrians, etc.), traffic control elements (e.g., lane markings, signs, signals, etc.), external conditions (e.g., weather conditions, traffic conditions, road conditions, etc.), and/or other physical characteristics of the environment. Other sensors of sensors 20 (e.g., GPS, accelerometer, or tachometer units) may provide operational and/or other data for determining the location and/or movement of the vehicle 8. Still other sensors of sensors 20 may be directed to the interior or passenger compartment of the vehicle 8, such as cameras, microphones, pressure sensors, thermometers, or similar sensors to monitor the vehicle operator and/or passengers within the vehicle 8.

The external sensors 24 may be disposed on or within other devices or components within the vehicle's environment (e.g., other vehicles 6, infrastructure components 26, etc.), and may include any of the types of sensors listed above. For example, the external sensors 24 may include sensors that are the same as or similar to sensors 20, but disposed on or within some of the vehicles 6 rather than the vehicle 8.

To send and receive information, each of the sensors 20 and/or external sensors 24 may include a transmitter and/or a receiver designed to operate according to predetermined specifications, such as the dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) channel, wireless telephony, Wi-Fi, or other existing or later-developed communications protocols. As used herein, the terms “sensor” or “sensors” may refer to the sensors 20 and/or external sensors 24.

In some embodiments, the infrastructure components 26 may be communicatively connected to the network 30 via a link (not shown in FIG. 1).

The smart homes 28 may include dwellings or other buildings that generate or collect data regarding their condition, occupancy, proximity to a mobile device 10 or vehicle 8, and/or other information. The smart homes 28 may include smart home controllers 29 that monitor the local environment of the smart home, which may include sensors (e.g., smoke detectors, radon detectors, door sensors, window sensors, motion sensors, cameras, etc.). In some embodiments, the smart home controller 29 may include or be communicatively connected to a security system controller for monitoring access and activity within the environment. The smart home 28 may further be communicatively connected to the network 30 via a link 36, in some embodiments.

The external data sources may collect data regarding the vehicle 8, a vehicle operator, a user of an insurance program, and/or an insured of an insurance policy. Additionally, or alternatively, the other vehicles 6, the public transportation system components 22, the infrastructure components 26, and/or the smart homes 28 may collect such data, and provide that data to the mobile device 10 and/or the smart vehicle controller 14 via links not shown in FIG. 1.

In some embodiments, the front-end components 2 communicate with the back-end components 4 via the network 30. The network 30 may include a proprietary network, a secure public internet, a virtual private network and/or one or more other types of networks, such as dedicated access lines, plain ordinary telephone lines, satellite links, cellular data networks, or combinations thereof. In embodiments where the network 30 comprises the Internet, data communications may take place over the network 30 via an Internet communication protocol.

The back-end components 4 may use a remote server 40 to receive data from the front-end components 2, determine characteristics of vehicle use, determine risk levels, modify insurance policies, and/or perform other processing functions in accordance with any of the methods described herein. In some embodiments, the server 40 may be associated with an insurance provider, either directly or indirectly. The server 40 may include one or more computer processors adapted and configured to execute various software applications and components of the telematics system 1.

The server 40 may further include a database 46, which may be adapted to store data related to the operation of the vehicle 8 and/or other information. As used herein, the term “database” may refer to a single database or other structured data storage, or to a collection of two or more different databases or structured data storage components. Additionally, the server 40 may be communicatively coupled via the network 30 to one or more data sources, which may include an accident database 42 and/or a third party database 44. The accident database 42 and/or third party database 44 may be communicatively connected to the network via a communication link 38. The accident database 42 and/or the third party database 44 may be operated or maintained by third parties, such as commercial vendors, governmental entities, industry associations, nonprofit organizations, or others.

The data stored in the database 46 might include, for example, dates and times of vehicle use, duration of vehicle use, speed of the vehicle 8, RPM or other tachometer readings of the vehicle 8, lateral and longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle 8, incidents or near-collisions of the vehicle 8, communications between the vehicle 8 and external sources (e.g., other vehicles 6, public transportation system components 22, infrastructure components 26, smart homes 28, and/or external information sources communicating through the network 30), environmental conditions of vehicle operation (e.g., weather, traffic, road condition, etc.), errors or failures of vehicle features, and/or other data relating to use of the vehicle 8 and/or the vehicle operator. Prior to storage in the database 46, some of the data may have been uploaded to the server 40 via the network 30 from the mobile device 10 and/or the smart vehicle controller 14. Additionally, or alternatively, some of the data may have been obtained from additional or external data sources via the network 30. Additionally, or alternatively, some of the data may have been generated by the server 40. The server 40 may store data in the database 46 and/or may access data stored in the database 46 when executing various functions and tasks associated with the methods described herein.

The server 40 may include a controller 55 that is operatively connected to the database 46 via a link 56. It should be noted that, while not shown in FIG. 1, one or more additional databases may be linked to the controller 55 in a known manner. For example, separate databases may be used for sensor data, vehicle insurance policy information, and vehicle use information. The controller 55 may include a program memory 60, a processor 62 (which may be called a microcontroller or a microprocessor), a random-access memory (RAM) 64, and an input/output (I/O) circuit 66, all of which may be interconnected via an address/data bus 65. It should be appreciated that although only one microprocessor 62 is shown, the controller 55 may include multiple microprocessors 62. Similarly, the memory of the controller 55 may include multiple RAMs 64 and multiple program memories 60. Although the I/O circuit 66 is shown as a single block, it should be appreciated that the I/O circuit 66 may include a number of different types of I/O circuits. The RAM 64 and program memories 60 may be implemented as semiconductor memories, magnetically readable memories, or optically readable memories, for example. The controller 55 may also be operatively connected to the network 30 via a link 35.

The server 40 may further include a number of software applications stored in a program memory 60. The various software applications on the server 40 may include specific programs, routines, or scripts for performing processing functions associated with the methods described herein. Additionally, or alternatively, the various software application on the server 40 may include general-purpose software applications for data processing, database management, data analysis, network communication, web server operation, or other functions described herein or typically performed by a server.

Generally, the sensor 76 may be any type of sensor that is currently existing or hereafter developed and is capable of providing information regarding the vehicle 8, the environment of the vehicle 8, and/or a person.

The memory 78 may include software applications that control the mobile device 10 and/or smart vehicle controller 14, and/or control the display 74 configured for accepting user input. The memory 78 may include instructions for controlling or directing the operation of vehicle equipment that may prevent, detect, and/or mitigate vehicle damage. The memory 78 may further include instructions for controlling a wireless or wired network of a smart vehicle, and/or interacting with mobile device 10 and remote server 40 (e.g., via the network 30).

The power supply 80 may be a battery or dedicated energy generator that powers the mobile device 10 and/or smart vehicle controller 14. The power supply 80 may harvest energy from the vehicle environment and be partially or completely energy self-sufficient, for example.

The transceiver 82 may be configured for wireless communication with sensors 20 located about the vehicle 8, other vehicles 6, other mobile devices similar to mobile device 10, and/or other smart vehicle controllers similar to smart vehicle controller 14. Additionally, or alternatively, the transceiver 82 may be configured for wireless communication with the server 40, which may be remotely located at an insurance provider location.

The clock 84 may be used to time-stamp the date and time that information is gathered or sensed by various sensors. For example, the clock 84 may record the time and date that photographs are taken by the camera 88, video is captured by the camera 88, and/or other data is received by the mobile device 10 and/or smart vehicle controller 14.

The microphone and speaker 86 may be configured for recognizing voice or audio input and/or commands. The clock 84 may record the time and date that various sounds are collected by the microphone and speaker 86, such as sounds of windows breaking, air bags deploying, tires skidding, conversations or voices of passengers, music within the vehicle 8, rain or wind noise, and/or other sound heard within or outside of the vehicle 8.

The present embodiments may be implemented without changes or extensions to existing communications standards. The smart vehicle controller 14 may also include a relay, node, access point, Wi-Fi AP (Access Point), local node, pico-node, relay node, and/or the mobile device 10 may be capable of RF (Radio Frequency) communication, for example. The mobile device 10 and/or smart vehicle controller 14 may include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GSM (Global System for Mobile communications), LTE (Long Term Evolution), CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access), UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System), and/or other types of components and functionality.

II. Telematics Data

Telematics data, as used herein, may include telematics data, and/or other types of data that have not been conventionally viewed as “telematics data.” The telematics data may be generated by, and/or collected or received from, various sources. For example, the data may include, indicate, and/or relate to vehicle (and/or mobile device) speed; acceleration; braking; deceleration; turning; time; GPS (Global Positioning System) or GPS-derived location, speed, acceleration, or braking information; vehicle and/or vehicle equipment operation; external conditions (e.g., road, weather, traffic, and/or construction conditions); other vehicles or drivers in the vicinity of an accident; vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications; vehicle-to-infrastructure communications; and/or image and/or audio information of the vehicle and/or insured driver before, during, and/or after an accident. The data may include other types of data, including those discussed elsewhere herein. The data may be collected via wired or wireless communication.

The data may be generated by mobile devices (smart phones, cell phones, lap tops, tablets, phablets, PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants), computers, smart watches, pagers, hand-held mobile or portable computing devices, smart glasses, smart electronic devices, wearable devices, smart contact lenses, and/or other computing devices); smart vehicles; dash or vehicle mounted systems or original telematics devices; public transportation systems; smart street signs or traffic lights; smart infrastructure, roads, or highway systems (including smart intersections, exit ramps, and/or toll booths); smart trains, buses, or planes (including those equipped with Wi-Fi or hotspot functionality); smart train or bus stations; internet sites; aerial, drone, or satellite images; third party systems or data; nodes, relays, and/or other devices capable of wireless RF (Radio Frequency) communications; and/or other devices or systems that capture image, audio, or other data and/or are configured for wired or wireless communication.

In some embodiments, the data collected may also derive from police or fire departments, hospitals, and/or emergency responder communications; police reports; municipality information; automated Freedom of Information Act requests; and/or other data collected from government agencies and officials. The data from different sources or feeds may be aggregated.

The data generated may be transmitted, via wired or wireless communication, to a remote server, such as a remote server and/or other processor(s) associated with an insurance provider. The remote server and/or associated processors may build a database of the telematics and/or other data, and/or otherwise store the data collected.

The remote server and/or associated processors may analyze the data collected and then perform certain actions and/or issue tailored communications based upon the data, including the insurance-related actions or communications discussed elsewhere herein. The automatic gathering and collecting of data from several sources by the insurance provider, such as via wired or wireless communication, may lead to expedited insurance-related activity, including the automatic identification of insured events, and/or the automatic or semi-automatic processing or adjusting of insurance claims.

In one embodiment, telematics data may be collected by a mobile device (e.g., smart phone) application. An application that collects telematics data may ask an insured for permission to collect and send data about driver behavior and/or vehicle usage to a remote server associated with an insurance provider. In return, the insurance provider may provide incentives to the insured, such as lower premiums or rates, or discounts. The application for the mobile device may be downloadable off of the internet.

In some embodiments, the telematics and/or other data generated, collected, determined, received, transmitted, analyzed, or otherwise utilized may relate to biometrics. For example, biometrics data may be used by an insurance provider to push wireless communications to a driver or an insured related to health and/or driving warnings or recommendations. In one aspect, a wearable electronics device may monitor various physical conditions of a driver to determine the physical, mental, and/or emotional condition of the driver, which may facilitate identification of a driver that may have a high risk of accident. Wearable electronics devices may monitor, for example, blood pressure or heart rate. Such data may be remotely gathered by an insurance provider remote server 40 for insurance-related purposes, such as for automatically generating wireless communications to the insured and/or policy and premium adjustments.

In some embodiments, the telematics and/or other data may indicate a health status of a driver. If biometrics data indicates that an insured is having a heart attack, for example, a recommendation or warning to stop driving and/or go to a hospital may be issued to the insured via the mobile device 10 or other means, and/or the insurance provider (or mobile device 10 or smart vehicle controller 14) may issue a request for immediate medical assistance.

The biometrics data may indicate the health or status of an insured immediately after an accident has occurred. The biometrics data may be automatically analyzed by the remote server 40 to determine that an ambulance should be sent to the scene of an accident. In the unfortunate situation that a death and/or a cause of death (e.g, severe auto accident) is indicated (from the telematics or other data, or from emergency responder wireless communication), an insurance provider may remotely receive that information at a remote server 40, and/or automatically begin processing a life insurance policy claim for the insured.

III. Risk-Averse Behavior-Based Insurance

The telematics and/or other data gathered may be analyzed for risk-averse or low risk behavior. The behavior may be used to identify low risk driving, living, and/or activities. An insurance provider may analyze actual accident information over a period of time, and/or build or train a data model of low risk behavior and/or characteristics. Comparing behavior or other data of individual insurance customers with the data model may identify low risk individuals.

A. Identifying Driving Behavior from Data Analysis

The telematics and/or other data gathered by an insurance provider remote server (such as server 40) may indicate excellent or good driving behavior. The data may lead to generating a best estimate of driving behavior for an insured. Such information may then be used by the insurance provider to adjust a risk score for the insured and/or associated insurance premiums or rates, and/or discounts, points, or rewards.

The telematics and/or other data may indicate the insured's behavior with respect to vehicle operations, such as the following: braking; speed; acceleration; deceleration; turning; average distance to the next vehicle—whether ahead, behind, or adjacent (i.e., traveling along side in the same direction of traffic); usage of vehicle technology (such as accident avoidance technology); usage of turn signals; usage of wireless communications from remote servers 40 or other vehicles 6 (i.e., vehicle-to-vehicle communication); and/or other driving characteristics. The data may also indicate whether an insured usually drives alone or in a car pool; the typical roads taken during a commute to and from work; time of day information; and/or other insured tendencies, including those discussed elsewhere herein.

The present embodiments may be configured to distinguish between good and bad driving behavior in order to not penalize good driving behavior. For example, the telematics and/or other data may involve both braking data and visual information, such as video from a dash camera. A hard braking event indicated from braking or speed information associated with vehicle deceleration may be verified as not being the fault of the driver, but rather indicative of responsible driving. Video from a dash camera may reveal that the hard braking event was caused by another vehicle, pedestrian, or child unexpectedly moving or jumping in front of the vehicle's path, and/or a traffic signal rapidly changing color. Alternatively, the video may indicate that the driver was following the vehicle ahead too closely. Also, an indicated sleeping event associated with gripping a steering wheel too tightly may be cancelled (or verified) by analyzing video or other telematics data showing driver alertness.

1. Individual Profile

A driving behavior profile for an insured may be developed based upon the telematics and/or other data. The data collected may indicate the speed at which an insured typically drives; the location(s) where the insured typically drives; the type of vehicle(s) that the insured typically drives; the type of roads or routes that the insured usually takes; the weather conditions that the insured will normally drive in; the time of day that the insured usually drives or drives the most at; the distance at which the insured typically trails other vehicles; whether the insured drives a large percentage of time adjacent to other vehicles traveling in the same direction (such as on a four-lane highway); whether the insured typically drives too slow or too fast in relation to the posted speed limit; and/or other driving characteristics of the insured.

The telematics and/or other data may reveal location information, i.e., where the insured drives. The risk for open road or highway driving may be less than the risk associated with downtown or city driving. Highway driving may indicate that a driver is not driving through a large amount of intersections, and/or typically driving greater distances from other vehicles on the road (i.e., less bumper-to-bumper driving). Driving over a certain speed, such as 45 mph, may also indicate that a driver or insured normally drives on the highway, and thus may have a lower risk of accident.

The data may include time and/or time of day information. The data may include a percentage of time that the vehicle spends on highways (which may be associated with a relatively low risk), and/or a percentage of time that the vehicle spends in parking lots (which may be associated with a relatively high risk). The data may also be used to determine normal traffic conditions associated with an insured, and/or the percentage of time that an insured vehicle is not being driven and/or parked in a public place (such as on the street), but rather is stored or housed inside and/or in a secure location (such as in the garage of the owner). Storing a vehicle inside may prevent theft and/or damage from the environment, such as wind or hail damage.

The telematics and/or other data may include the number of miles that an insured typically drives. More miles driven may indicate more risk, depending upon type of road traveled. The data may also indicate the type, make, or model of a vehicle that is driven by the insured. Certain vehicle types, makes, or models may have superior safety, equipment, or other vehicle ratings.

The data may facilitate driver mood detection in real-time or building an average mood profile for the insured. The mood of a driver or insured may impact driving behavior. Soft or light music may indicate that the driver or insured is relaxed and calm while driving. Conversely, loud music may indicate that the driver or insured is in an aggressive mood. A mobile device or smart vehicle application may detect the songs or type of music usually played on the vehicle sound system or radio, and/or loudness thereof.

2. Family Members

The telematics and/or other data gathered may be associated with a family that has multiple drivers driving a specific vehicle, such as parents and teenagers. The vehicle and/or mobile devices may be able to capture video, images, and/or audio information associated with, and/or of, the driver while driving an insured vehicle. The identification of the specific driver may be made by analysis of the video or images (e.g., via facial recognition software) and/or of audio data (e.g., via voice recognition software). Additionally or alternatively, the data collected from various sources may facilitate driver identification from fingerprints, a recognition of the driver's grip upon a smart steering wheel, and/or the driver's weight (such as from seat pressure sensors).

The telematics and/or other data may alert parents and/or police of risky driving behavior. Young or elderly drivers may exhibit high risk driving behavior, and that may be communicated to the parents, adult children, and/or the insured. On the other hand, telematics data may confirm that a young or elderly driver typically exhibits lower risk driving behavior as compared to those of the same age group. An insured or parent may submit, to an insurance provider, a telematics profile for their teenage driver to demonstrate low risk behavior, and thus obtain associated insurance savings.

Certain telematics devices may require data adjustments based upon movement of the data collection device (e.g., mobile device 10, smart vehicle controller 14, etc.) within the vehicle during data collection. If an insured moves a mobile device 10 during vehicle movement, for example, the data collected may need to be adjusted for a telematics algorithm to use and/or analyze the data. An insurance rating may be based upon the number of times that a mobile device 10 (collecting telematics data) was used, or moved, during driving.

Over or under reporting of vehicle usage by family members may impact risk and rates. For instance, undisclosed drivers may impact risk, such as teenagers driving a higher rated vehicle. The telematics and/or other data may determine which driver is actually driving an insured vehicle and/or how much. The data may also reveal over and/or under reporting of teenage and/or high-risk driver usage of, or miles driving, insured vehicles. Insurance rates may be adjusted to reflect actual, or a more accurate estimate of, vehicle usage by teenage and/or high-risk drivers determined from analysis of the telematics and/or other data. Alternatively, over reporting of teenage and/or high-risk driver usage by risk-averse customers may be similarly determined from analysis of the telematics and/or other data. Thus, telematics and/or other data may be analyzed as discussed herein to provide a technical solution to improve the accuracy of data regarding vehicle usage and/or risks associated therewith.

3. Road Conditions

The telematics and/or other data may reveal the amount of traffic lights and/or intersections that the vehicle and/or insured typically travels through on a daily, weekly, monthly, or other basis. Certain commuters may have mostly highway driving, with minimum stopping along the route from home to work. Such conditions may be associated with lower risk levels because fewer changes to the vehicle's operation need to be safely executed by the driver. Conversely, other commuters may have mainly congested or city driving, with frequent red lights or stop signs at which they must stop on the way to and from work, which may be associated with higher risk levels.

The data may reveal the percentage of time that the vehicle is driven in parking lots or ramps. Parking lot or ramp driving may be associated with a higher than normal risk of collision.

B. Applying Driver Behavior to Other Types of Insurance

The driving behavior may indicate an amount and/or type of risk behavior that the insured usually avoids, or alternatively, engages in. A risk behavior or driving score may be associated with, and/or otherwise attributed to, the insured. Low risk and/or risk-averse driving behavior may be applied to other types of insurance other than auto insurance to provide savings to the insured on premiums or rates associated with the other types of insurance.

An analysis of how well one drives a vehicle (i.e., how responsible a driver the insured is) may be indicative of how responsible and/or risk-averse a home owner the insured is. Also, maintenance records of the vehicle may be gathered. The maintenance records, like the driving behavior, may be indicative of how well an insured takes care of, maintains, and/or fixes their vehicle. This data, in turn, may be reflective of how well that same insured is likely to take care of and maintain their home. A risk factor may be determined from the vehicle or driving data that is subsequently applied to home owner insurance (as well as renters, life, or health insurance) premiums or rates, and/or discounts or rewards.

C. Recommendations & Incentives

An insurance provider may request that an insured permits the insurance provider to collect telematics and/or other data regarding certain behaviors of the insured. The insurance provider may ask the insured to opt into insurance programs that provide insurance related benefits to the insured that reflect low risk and/or risk-averse behavior of the insured and/or family members. From the data collected, the insurance provider may provide specific recommendations and/or incentivize insurance customer (and/or family) behavior. The behavior that is encouraged may benefit both the insured and insurance provider, and/or may reduce the risk associated with the insured and/or family members.

An application on a mobile device 10 (or smart vehicle controller 14) associated with an insured and/or a family member may display an up-to-date driving score for the insured. As the driving score for the insured and/or family member changes, the mobile device may show an amount of a discount and/or a reduced premium that the insured and/or family member has earned, and/or is entitled to receive from the insurance provider based upon lower risk and/or more risk-averse driving behavior.

The insurance provider may indicate that the insured and/or another family member is driving over the speed limit or tailgating too frequently. If the insured and/or other family member drives slower and/or more responsibly, the insurance provider may provide a discount and/or reduced premium on their auto insurance policy and/or other insurance policies.

The insurance provider may provide other insurance-related recommendations and/or incentives unrelated to driving. The insurance provider may monitor workout or fitness center habits of the insured and/or family members with their permission, and/or once they decide to opt into an insurance rewards or points program. For example, a personal activity monitor (e.g., a pedometer) may be used to determine exercise and/or fitness levels for an individual. The insurance provider may provide a discount or reduced premiums on health or life insurance if the insured and/or family members go to the gym and workout more often, and/or exercise a set amount times within a given period, such as a month or year.

Also with the insured's permission, eating habits may be determined from foodography and/or photographs of food or restaurants that the insured shares on social media or the internet. Additionally, or alternatively, the insured's location may be used to determine likely eating habits (e.g., by identifying the insured is located within a restaurant that may be associated with healthy or unhealthy food). If the insured (and/or a family member) is typically eating fast or unhealthy food, the insurance provider may provide a discount on a health or life insurance policy if the insured (and/or family member) agrees to eat healthier food. Also, if it is detected that the insured (and/or family member) is engaging in risky behavior, such as smoking cigarettes, the insurance provider may provide a discount on health or life insurance if the insured (and/or family member) reduces the frequency of that behavior. Again, location information from a mobile device 10 may be used to determine such behavior. For example, frequent five-minute trips to stand outside may be taken as an indication of smoking.

IV. Intelligent Routing

The present embodiments may facilitate generating intelligent routing recommendations and transmitting those to an insured via the mobile device 10 and/or smart vehicle controller 14. The intelligent routing may be based upon vehicle location, route, and/or destination information. The intelligent routing may also be based upon historical data and/or real-time data. The historical and/or real-time data may relate to past or current accidents, weather, traffic, traffic patterns, road conditions, and/or road construction. The intelligent routing functionality, and/or usage (or percentage of usage) thereof, may be used to adjust insurance premiums or rates, and/or discounts.

The intelligent routing may provide directions and/or route guidance to a driver or insured based upon traffic patterns and/or actual accident data. The intelligent routing may also take into consideration current weather, construction, traffic, and/or other current conditions.

The intelligent routing may provide real-time warnings or updates to drivers or insurance customers. The intelligent routing may lead to collision or accident avoidance; more efficient or quicker trips; driving through less traffic or construction; better gas mileage; and/or other benefits.

For instance, short-term or minor road construction projects that may occur with little or no notice may be promptly detected by an insured or the insured's smart vehicle controller 14. The GPS location of the minor road construction project (that may be temporarily shutting down a main traffic route or otherwise slowing down traffic) may be sent from the smart vehicle controller 14 of the insured to the insurance provider remote server 40. The remote server 40 may then estimate routes to divert traffic around the construction project and notify other insurance customers in the area of an alternate recommended route, such as via wireless communication to their mobile devices 10 and/or smart vehicle controllers 14.

The telematics and/or other data may be used to generate messages or alerts transmitted to a mobile device 10 or smart vehicle controller 14. A message may indicate that the driver is entering a danger zone associated with an above average risk. For instance, the area may have a lot of ongoing construction, and/or be associated with a higher than average number of accidents. A message may further indicate a recommendation, such as one or more alternate routes.

In one embodiment, the intelligent routing may utilize vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication. The V2V communication may reveal that the other vehicles 6 ahead of an insured vehicle 8 are all braking, indicating an accident ahead. The V2V communication data may be sent directly from one vehicle 6 to an insured vehicle 8, or alternatively, from one vehicle 8 to a remote telematics or an insurance provider server 40 via the network 30. The remote server 40 may then send a message or warning to the insured or insured vehicle to slow down, or even exit a highway and take an alternate route. Access to the remote server 40 may be granted via a subscription service or as a customer service provided by the insurance provider. In some embodiments, messages may be determined in part based upon preferences or options selected or set by the insured.

V2V communication may include sending a message to a smart vehicle controller 14 or mobile device 10 directing the smart vehicle controller 14 or mobile device 10 to automatically start recording and/or transmitting telematics data. For instance, V2V communication may indicate that an accident has occurred or is likely to happen. In such situations, automatically recording telematics and/or other data may facilitate accident reconstruction and/or cause of accident determination. In some embodiments, the telematics and/or other data may include vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications.

In some embodiments, if an insured self-reports an accident location (e.g., via automatic wireless communication indicating GPS location information), other insurance customers or drivers may be able to promptly and effectively avoid the accident scene through intelligent routing recommendations. The intelligent routing may not only consider avoidance of the accident scene, but also other driving risk conditions, such as current traffic, construction, and/or weather conditions, to determine an overall lowest risk alternate route to each vehicle's respective destination.

V. Partner Data Collection with Other Functionality

A telematics application may partner with another (non-insurance related) application to increase usage. Telematics or insurance-based application functionality may be combined with another application functionality that is associated with social media websites, and/or virtual map or vehicle navigation services. The non-insurance based functionality may include points-of-interest, friend finder, entertainment event or concert-related, restaurant locator, internet or internet searching, and/or other functionality.

As an example, the non-insurance functionality may present a list of recommended restaurants for an upcoming town when the vehicle is traveling along a highway or on a long trip. The list of recommended restaurants may be read or displayed to the occupants of the vehicle. Additionally, the telematics and/or other data collected may indicate that an insured goes to a specific fitness center routinely. With the insured's permission, targeted ads may be sent to the insured associated with that fitness center and/or shops located nearby. The targeted ads may present local bargains or reduced prices for products and/or services, such as on a mobile device or vehicle display screen.

The non-insurance functionality may also relate to providing other benefits to the insured. For instance, the telematics or insurance-based application functionality may be combined with functionality that directs a driver to a nearest gas station or shopping mall, or to a parking spot. The parking spot, gas station, shopping mall, and/or other places/services recommended may be rated for safety, cost, and/or service. The use of additional or non-insurance functionality for the telematics or insurance-based mobile device applications may incentivize typical insurance customers into using telematics applications and/or usage-based insurance more often.

VI. Anonymous Driver Data

The telematics and/or other data gathered may be used to develop an anonymous or average driver profile or model associated with anonymous driver behavior. The anonymous driver profile may include information regarding typical or average driving behaviors for a specific driving environment and/or type of driving environment. The anonymous driver profile may be generated, developed, and/or determined based upon telematics and/or other data regarding driving behavior of a plurality or group of drivers and/or vehicles. For example, an anonymous driver profile may be determined from telematics data collected from hundreds or thousands of drivers and/or individual trips in an area and/or along a particular portion of a roadway (e.g., a city, a census tract, a parking lot, a block of a street, a highway section, an intersection, an entrance or exit ramp, etc.). The anonymous driver profile may be compared with the insured's driving behavior to analyze and/or determine a risk score for the insured.

For example, the telematics and/or other data gathered may indicate an average speed that the insured normally drives at as compared to typical drivers, and/or average drivers in a given community or geographical area. Anonymous speed data may be gathered that indicates the average speed of anonymous drivers in a given area or on a given stretch of road. The anonymous speed data may also indicate average braking events (e.g., number of braking events, whether such braking is hard or soft, deceleration rate during braking, distance to stop, etc.) or aggressive driving (or lack thereof) for anonymous drivers on a given stretch of road.

When the insured is on the same road as the road for which anonymous or average driver data is collected, data related to their specific vehicle speed and braking may be collected. If the insured's vehicle speed on that road is below the speed indicated for the average driver, it may indicate that the insured typically drives below the speed limit and/or in a low risk manner. Conversely, if the insured's vehicle speed on that road (or stretch of road or location) is above average, that may indicate the insured typically drives in a more risky manner.

If the insured's vehicle braking information indicates that the insured brakes a below average amount, that may be indicative that the insured trails other vehicles at a risk-averse distance, does not tailgate, and/or otherwise drives in a below risk manner. Conversely, if the vehicle braking information indicates that the insured brakes an excessive or above average amount, that may indicate that the insured is typically following other vehicles too closely and/or potentially driving in a manner associated with above average risk.

In one aspect, GPS data from a number of anonymous drivers may be gathered. A database of anonymous driver behavior on certain roads or areas may be built, such as demonstrating the speed and/or braking of the average driver on a specific section of road. Telematics and/or other data, including GPS data, associated with the insured may be collected and compared with the anonymous driver characteristics for specific sections of road. If lower than average risk is identified by the behavior exhibited by the insured (or other driver, such as a family member), the insurance provider may then provide the insured with insurance savings.

VII. Individual-Based Insurance

An insurance provider may determine a rating, risk profile, or risk score for individuals using telematics and/or other data. The vehicles available for use by an individual may impact or influence their personal insurance rate. The telematics and/or other data collected may indicate, or be used to estimate, a percentage of time that an insured or other person operates each vehicle within a household. The telematics and/or other data may be received by a remote server 40 from a mobile device 10, smart vehicle controller 14, and/or other sources described herein.

The telematics and/or other data may indicate, or be used to determine, driver behavior and characteristics for an individual. The type of car driven may impact safety, such as certain types of vehicles may be better or quicker at braking, which may lead to less rear-end collisions. More detailed data regarding vehicle usage and/or driving behavior may be used to determine more accurate risk level assessments associated with individuals, households, businesses, and/or vehicles.

A. Transportation Characteristics

To insure a specific individual, an insurance provider remote server 40 may consider and analyze a number of factors. The insurance provider remote server may develop a “transportation coverage” rating or score for an insured, and/or use telematics and/or other data to monitor or identify transportation characteristics of an individual. The data may be used to score individuals based upon their lifestyle and/or build individual profiles, which may take into consideration information and pictures available on social media and/or the internet.

The transportation coverage or characteristics may include information related to the types of roads and conditions (traffic, construction, weather, etc.) that the insured typically drives. This may allow the insurance provider remote server to estimate an insurance rate for the actual type of miles that the insured is driving, and not simply basing an insurance rate on an amount of generic or average miles driven. For example, a driver who drives fifty miles per week in daylight on infrequently trafficked rural roads may have a substantially lower risk than a driver who drives fifty miles per week during evenings on congested urban streets.

The transportation coverage or characteristics may include information related to the operation of one or more vehicles identified by the remote server 40 based upon analysis of the telematics and/or other data. Analysis of the data may reveal the amount and/or type of other forms of transportation an insured uses. Data collected (such as by the mobile device 10) may reveal that the insured takes a safer mode of transportation a certain percentage of the time. The data may indicate the amount or frequency that the insured takes public transportation, a bus system, a train system, travels via airplane, rides a bicycle, and/or even walks. The data may further be used to determine times and/or places in which generally safer forms of transportation may be particularly dangerous (e.g., bicycling in a business district of a major city during weekday rush hour).

If the insured commonly travels via modes of transportation other than automobile, that may indicate that the person is typically risk-averse. People who are risk-averse may in turn typically have less risk of accident or injury, such as from dangerous activities (e.g., sky diving, scuba diving, and/or skiing). Risk-averse people may also take greater precautions with their property, leading to lower risk levels associated with property theft, damage, and/or destruction.

Telematics and/or other data may monitor a mobile device 10 location and/or speed to determine the transportation tendencies of an individual. From determining that an insured traveled slowly to a known bus stop or train station, and then traveled at typical speed for a bus or train, for example, it may be gleaned by the remote server 40 that the insurance customer walked to a public transportation system component 22, and then traveled via public transportation, as opposed to driving their personal and/or insured vehicle.

With the insured's permission, the insurance provider may develop a transportation-related profile for an insured. The transportation-related profile may include when and where the insured is driving an insured or other vehicle; what type of vehicle the insured typically drives; when the insured is a passenger in another vehicle, such as a bus; a percentage of time that the insured travels during which the insured is not driving a vehicle but using alternate and/or safer modes of transportation; and/or other conditions or factors, including those discussed elsewhere herein.

To insure an individual, in addition to estimating a transportation-related coverage, other variables may be weighted and aggregated. For instance, insurance coverage or scores related to lifestyle, habits, hobbies, activities, health, home, fitness routine, finances, geographic area, marital status, age, sex, family members, education level, and/or other factors may be determined and/or combined.

B. Social Media

If a customer opts in to an insurance discount program, the customer may agree to allow the insurance provider remote server 40 to automatically analyze their pictures and/or comments posted on social media to determine a rating or score for individual-based insurance. For instance, a customer or insured may agree to share social networking information and/or an online profile for insurance-related purposes. In some embodiments, the server 40 may generate automatic messages and/or recommendations tailored for the customer or insured based upon social media content. For example, if a customer posts a message regarding looking for a new car, the server 40 may send a message to the customer (via social media or otherwise) with information regarding safety ratings of various cars.

Social media may reveal, among other things, that an insured lives in a safe neighborhood; typically walks to work; engages in certain recreational activities; exercises routinely; avoids risky activities; is generally in good physical health; and/or otherwise indicates that the insured leads a low risk of accident or injury life style. For example, an insured may frequently post messages on social media indicating fitness-related activities (e.g., marathons, triathlons, fitness classes, workouts, fitness tracker automated posts, etc.) that indicate frequent physical activity likely to result in or indicate good health. As another example, the insured may subscribe to a number of healthy cooking or eating sites, lists, etc., which may similarly indicate healthy behavior indicative of good health.

C. Limiting Distractions

The telematics and/or other data may control the vehicle, or allowable functionality thereof, in certain ways for specific operators/drivers. In one aspect, the data may facilitate automatically starting an insured vehicle 8 for an insured or other driver when their mobile device 10 gets within a certain distance of the vehicle 8, and/or automatically adjusting the vehicle air conditioning or heater to achieve a pre-determined temperature. Such automatic adjustments may limit distractions to the driver, thereby reducing risk levels associated with vehicle operation.

For other drivers that may be prone to distractions, such as beginning or teenage drivers, the data may be used to limit the vehicle functionality that may be used. For instance, a specific driver may be identified by the data, and then they may be prevented from adjusting windows or minors while they are driving or the vehicle is moving. Other types of distractions in the vehicle may also be alleviated. For example, mobile device 10 and/or vehicle entertainment system usage may be prevented or limited while driving, such as by preventing mobile device texting and/or limiting the vehicle radio to a certain volume.

VIII. Umbrella Insurance

The telematics and/or other data may be used for umbrella insurance, such as insurance coverage covering everyone in a household. A risk score or factor for a household and/or a number of family members, instead of an individual, may be generated from the data. The household risk score may make underwriting universal policies (e.g., auto/home/life/health) easier.

In one aspect, ride sharing data may be used. For those that carpool, carpooling with drivers that have demonstrated good driving behavior may be reflected or rewarded by the insurance provider with lower insurance premiums or rates, or discounts. Such discounts or adjustments may reflect the proportion of driving time, distance, trips, etc. that each driver in the car pool drives. Additionally, or alternatively, the discounts or adjustments may reflect the usage of different vehicles.

Vehicle tracking may be performed for a fleet of vehicles. A fleet of drivers for a company may be given a discount based upon their collective driving behavior that is determined from the data collected. Information regarding driving behavior of individuals or groups of drivers may be provided for fleet management and/or other purposes (e.g., verifying safe driving, logs, or routes).

The telematics and/or other data may be used to coach drivers on how to be safer, more efficient, and/or otherwise improve vehicle operation. For example, telematics and/or other data may be provided to drivers to help them achieve better gas mileage. For instance, better driving habits and taking better or more efficient routes may allow the driver to save money on gas. The insurance provider may provide tips and recommendations to the driver and/or insured via their mobile device or vehicle display.

The telematics and/or other data may be used with location services. For instance, data from one or more mobile devices 10 or other sources may be used to determine home occupancy. Vacant homes may be at a greater risk of theft and/or in need of yard work or repairs that are being left unattended to. Unoccupied properties may be subject to a variety of increased risks, from higher risk of theft to higher risks of fire or water damage (partially due to delay in observing and responding to hazardous conditions). For example, an unattended yard may indicate that the house is currently vacant, which in turn may increase the likelihood of a break in. If a home or vacation home is not occupied for 60 days, a message may be sent to the insured and/or insurance provider. The insurance provider may adjust the home owner insurance policy, premium, rate, or discount accordingly if an insured home is left unattended for too long a period.

Telematics and/or other data may be used to determine that a home is unoccupied from an insured vehicle 8 or mobile device 10 travel history (such as a travel history indicating movement to and from a second or vacation home), and/or a present location of the insured vehicle 8 or mobile device 10. Unattended homes may also be determined from a detected lack of use of a smart garage door or other smart doors on the home, and/or a smart home controller 29 of a smart home 28 that is in wireless communication with the insurance provider remote server 40 via the network 30.

Telematics and/or other data may also be used to determine pet behavior. For instance, dogs and/or cats may be timid, tame, or vicious. Images and audio data may be received and automatically analyzed by a remote server 40 to determine or characterize average pet behavior and/or identify overly aggressive animals. Home insurance may be adjusted to reflect an appropriate level of risk, or lack thereof, associated with the home owner's pet(s).

IX. Exemplary Use of Anonymous Data

FIG. 3 illustrates an exemplary computer-implemented method 300 of determining a driving or other risk score from anonymous driver data and/or anonymous driver behavior. As used herein, an “anonymous driver” means either (i) an average (possibly fictitious) driver whose characteristics and/or behavior are determined from information regarding a plurality of drivers or (ii) each of a plurality of drivers for whom information regarding past driving behavior is available. Also as used herein, “anonymous driver data” means data regarding past vehicle operation associated with one or more anonymous drivers, and “anonymous driver behavior” means past driving behavior of one or more anonymous drivers. In some embodiments, the anonymous driver or anonymous drivers may be selected and/or determined based upon characteristics, such as driving experience, age, residency, etc., and information regarding the anonymous drivers may be anonymized by separating identifying information from the information regarding vehicle operation.

In some embodiments, the method 300 may be implemented in whole or in part by one or more components of the telematics system 1 depicted in FIG. 1. For example, the method 300 may be implemented by a server 40 remote from the front-end components 2 (e.g., sensors 20 or 24, vehicles 6 or 8, mobile devices 10, smart vehicle controllers 14, etc.) or another server (not shown). In some embodiments, the front-end components 2 may be used to generate and/or collect data relating to driving behavior of multiple drivers, including an insured driver of the vehicle 8. The method 300 is exemplary and may include additional, fewer, or alternate actions, including those discussed elsewhere herein.

At block 302, the method 300 may include collecting telematics and/or other data associated with anonymous drivers and/or anonymous driver behavior. The telematics and/or other data may include information regarding vehicle operation, such as driving speed, braking, acceleration, distance from other vehicles, turns, lane changes, and/or other aspects of vehicle operation. Such data may be collected at or via a server 40, such as an insurance provider remote server. In some embodiments, the telematics and/or other data may be generated by sensors associated with a plurality of vehicles 6 and/or an infrastructure component 26 (e.g., a traffic camera, a speed radar device, etc.). The telematics and/or other data may also be generated by or include information related to vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications and/or vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications.

In some embodiments, collecting the telematics and/or other data associated with anonymous drivers and/or anonymous driver behavior may include determining an anonymous driver profile indicative of driving behavior of a plurality of anonymous drivers. The anonymous driver profile may be generated periodically by the server 40 (e.g., monthly, quarterly, annually, etc.). One or more anonymous driver profiles may be generated and used for comparison with insured driver behavior, as discussed below. By using an anonymous driver profile, significant improvements in efficiency of computing resources (e.g., processor usage, data communication, memory storage, etc.) usage may be achieved relative to a direct comparison of insured driver behavior against information relating to a plurality of other drivers. In some embodiments, the anonymous driver profile may be limited in scope to a number of classes and/or types of information, which may further improve processing and/or memory storage efficiency.

At block 304, the method 300 may include collecting telematics and/or other data associated with insured driving behavior. Insured driving behavior may include driving behavior of an insured driver, who may be associated with one or more insurance policies issued by the insurance provider. Data associated with the insured driving behavior may be collected at or via the remote server 40 or other remote server. The telematics and/or other data may be directly or indirectly generated and/or received from the mobile device 10 and/or smart vehicle controller 14 via the network 30. In some embodiments, the data may be generated and/or received by the sensors 20 or 24. In various embodiments, the data may be associated with a driver and/or a vehicle.

At block 306, the method 300 may include comparing and/or analyzing the insured driver behavior data with the anonymous driver behavior to identify low risk driving, high risk driving, or risk levels associated with the driving behavior. This may include determining and/or identifying (at the server 40 or at another server or computing device) high or low risk behavior, relative to the anonymous driver behavior. In some embodiments, this may include a comparison of telematics data regarding a plurality of driving behaviors and/or risk-indicating behaviors. For example, the method 300 may include comparisons related to speed in block 306A, braking in block 306B, acceleration or deceleration in block 306C, and/or average distance to the next vehicle in block 306D. Other comparison of driver characteristics and/or behavior may also be made using the insured and anonymous driver behavior data sets.

At block 308, the method 300 may include determining a risk score for the insured based upon the comparison of the insured's driving behavior with the anonymous driver behavior. The remote server 40 may be used to determine one or more risk scores or levels based upon the one or more driver behaviors identified and/or determined in blocks 306 and/or 306A-D. The one or more risk scores may indicate an absolute risk level associated with the vehicle and/or driver, or the one or more risk scores may indicate relative risk levels in comparison with one or more risk levels associated with the anonymous drivers and/or driver behavior. In some embodiments, multiple score levels may be combined into one risk score, which may be a weighted combination of the multiple scores. Where a weighted combination is determined, the weights may be determined manually or automatically by known or later-developed computer-learning methods (e.g., support vector machines, random forests, artificial neural networks, etc.). In some embodiments, the risk score may also include one or more risk aversion scores indicating a general risk preference profile or level of the insured driver.

At block 310, the method 300 may include adjusting, updating, and/or generating insurance premiums, rates, discounts, etc. based upon the risk score for the insured determined at block 308. Thus, the remote server 40 may determine change to an insurance policy based upon the risk score. For example, a discount may be generated for an insurance policy when a determined risk score indicates that a driver operates a vehicle in a risk averse manner or in a manner that results in lower risk than the average risk associated with the anonymous drivers. In some embodiments, an insurance customer, insured driver, and/or other party may be notified or warned regarding the risk levels, adjustment, and/or update.

In one aspect, a computer-implemented method of using anonymous driver data to adjust a driving risk score may be provided. The method may include (1) collecting anonymous driver data associated with anonymous driver behavior (at or via a remote server associated with an insurance provider), the data indicating anonymous driver behavior for specific roads, sections of roads, and/or intersections; (2) collecting insured driving behavior data (at or via the remote server) associated with a specific driver and/or insured that has an auto insurance policy with the insurance provider, the insured driving behavior data including telematics related data; (3) comparing the anonymous driver data with the insured driving behavior data (via the remote server) to determine a driving risk score for the insured; and/or (4) generating, adjusting, and/or updating an insurance policy, premium, rate, discount, and/or reward for the insured based upon the comparison of the anonymous driver data with the insured driving behavior data and/or the driving risk score generated for the insured.

The comparison of the anonymous driver data with the insured driving behavior data may include one or more of the following: a comparison of anonymous driver speed with an insured driving speed for a specific road, section of road, and/or individual intersection; a comparison of anonymous driver braking with insured braking for a specific road, section of road, and/or individual intersection; a comparison of anonymous driver acceleration with insured acceleration for a specific road, section of road, and/or individual intersection; and/or a comparison of anonymous driver following distance with an insured driving following distance for a specific road, section of road, and/or individual intersection.

In one aspect, the telematics and/or other data may include data associated with, or generated by, mobile devices, such as smart phones, smart glasses, and/or smart wearable electronic devices capable of wireless communication. The telematics and/or other data may include data associated with, or generated by, an insured vehicle or a computer system of the insured vehicle. The telematics and/or other data may include data associated with, or generated by, (i) a vehicle other than the insured vehicle; (ii) vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication; and/or (iii) road side equipment or infrastructure. The method may include additional, fewer, or alternative actions.

X. Exemplary Application of Driving Score

FIG. 4 illustrates an exemplary computer-implemented method 400 of applying a driving risk score to types of insurance other than auto insurance. In some embodiments, the method 400 may be implemented in whole or in part by one or more components of the telematics system 1 depicted in FIG. 1. For example, the method 400 may be implemented by a server 40 remote from the front-end components 2 (e.g., sensors 20 or 24, vehicles 6 or 8, mobile devices 10, smart vehicle controllers 14, etc.) or another server (not shown). In some embodiments, the front-end components 2 may be used to generate and/or collect data relating to driving behavior of one or more drivers, including an insured driver of the vehicle 8. The method 400 is exemplary and may include additional, fewer, or alternate actions, including those discussed elsewhere herein.

At block 402, the method 400 may include collecting telematics and/or other data associated with driving behavior of an insured at or via an insurance provider remote server 40. The telematics and/or other data may be received from a smart vehicle 8 (or other vehicle) or mobile device 10. Such data may include any of the data discussed herein, but data regarding vehicle operation by an insured may be particularly useful in determining risks in method 400. In some embodiments, the data may also include data from an accident database 42 and/or a third-party database 44 via the network 30, which data may supplement, verify, and/or contradict some or all of the other collected data.

At block 404, the method 400 may include calculating, at or via the remote server, a low or other driving risk or risk score for the insured from the data collected and/or received. This may include determining and/or identifying (at the server 40 or at another server or computing device) high or low risk behavior. This may also include determining associations and/or correlations between the data and risk preferences and/or levels associated with one or more insurance customers and/or insured persons. For example, data indicating an insured driver maintains a greater distance from vehicles traveling ahead of the driver may be used to determine risk scores or levels for either or both of a driving risk and/or general risk preferences of the insured. In some embodiments, data relating to anonymous driver behavior may be used to determine risk scores and/or levels. In some embodiments, this may include a comparison of telematics data regarding a plurality of driving behaviors and/or risk-indicating behaviors.

At block 406, the method 400 may include determining (at or via the remote server 40) a risk score for one or more types of insurance other than auto insurance (e.g., home owners, renters, health, life, excess liability, etc.) for the insured based upon the low or other driver risk for the insured. For example, the server 40 may determined a risk score for homeowners' insurance, based upon determined risk preferences and/or property care levels of the insured. If the insured demonstrates low risk levels while driving, this may indicate general risk aversion, responsibility, or forethought that may similarly indicate lower risks to property. For example, if the telematics and/or other data indicate that the insured regularly parks a safe distance from other vehicles and always ensures the vehicle is locked, the insured may be determined by server 40 to be more likely to ensure all windows are closed when leaving home. As another example, if data from the smart vehicle controller 14 indicated that an insurance customer performs routine maintenance on the vehicle 8 on a regular schedule, the customer may be determined by server 40 to be more likely to perform routine maintenance on a dwelling (e.g., cleaning gutters, trimming dead branches from trees, etc.) in a timely manner. In some embodiments, the risk score may also include one or more risk aversion scores indicating a general risk preference profile or level of the insured driver.

At block 408, the method 400 may include adjusting, updating, and/or generating (at or via the remote server 40) one or more other types of insurance policies based upon one or more of (i) the driving risk or risk score determined at block 404, and/or (ii) the risk score for the other types of insurance determined at block 406. This may include adjusting, updating, determining, applying, and/or implementing premiums, rates, discounts, surcharges, deductibles, limits, and/or other terms of one or more insurance policies, which terms may be related to price and/or coverage. Such changes to the one or more insurance policies may cause the policies to more accurately reflect the risk levels associated with the policies by utilizing the telematics and/or other data. To this end, the server 40 may weight the driving risk scores and/or other risk scores based upon the type of insurance policy to be adjusted.

At block 410, the server 40 may cause information regarding the adjusted, updated, and/or generated one or more other types of insurance policies to be presented the insured and/or insurance customer for their review, approval, and/or modification. The information may include all or part of the one or more insurance policies. In some embodiments, the information may be presented to the insured and/or insurance customer via wireless communication with the mobile device 10 and/or smart vehicle controller 14. The information may then be presented to the user via the display 74 or otherwise. The insured and/or insurance customer may further be presented with one or more options pertaining to insurance policies (e.g., coverage levels, payment options, etc.), which the insured and/or insurance customer may select. Upon selection of options and/or approval from the insured and/or insurance customer, the server 40 may cause adjustments, changes, and/or updates to be implemented regarding the one or more other insurance policies.

XI. Exemplary Application of Driving Risk

FIG. 5 illustrates an exemplary computer-implemented method 500 of applying driving risk to non-automobile insurance. In some embodiments, the method 500 may be implemented in whole or in part by one or more components of the telematics system 1 depicted in FIG. 1. For example, the method 500 may be implemented by a server 40 remote from the front-end components 2 (e.g., sensors 20 or 24, vehicles 6 or 8, mobile devices 10, smart vehicle controllers 14, etc.) or another server (not shown). In some embodiments, the front-end components 2 may be used to generate and/or collect data relating to driving behavior of one or more drivers, including an insured driver of the vehicle 8. The method 500 is exemplary and may include additional, fewer, or alternate actions, including those discussed elsewhere herein.

At block 502, the method 500 may include collecting telematics and/or other data associated with driving behavior of an insured at or via an insurance provider remote server 40. The telematics and/or other data may be received from a smart vehicle 8 (or other vehicle) or mobile device 10. Such data may include any of the data discussed herein, but data regarding vehicle operation by an insured may be particularly useful in determining risks in method 500. In some embodiments, the data may also include data from an accident database 42 and/or a third-party database 44 via the network 30, which data may supplement, verify, and/or contradict some or all of the other collected data.

At block 504, the method 500 may include analyzing the collected insured driver driving behavior data at or via the remote server 40. Analysis of the data may include determining driving characteristics and/or driving environments. Information regarding driving characteristics may include indicators of aggressive or conservative driving, such as speed, braking (hard, soft, frequency, etc.), acceleration, lane centering, distance from other vehicles, attentiveness, distraction, fatigue, impairment, and/or use of vehicle options or equipment. Information regarding driving environments may include time, location, type of road, traffic or congestion, weather conditions, construction, and/or other relevant information regarding the operating environment of the vehicle 8. The driving characteristic and/or driving environment information may be classified in categories and/or scored (e.g., by determining probabilities or likelihoods of salient features). In some embodiments, machine learning techniques may be used to determine driving characteristics and/or driving environments.

At block 506, the method 500 may include developing a driving risk or a driving risk score for the insured from analysis of the insured driver driving behavior data, similar to risk or score determination discussed elsewhere herein. To determine the driving risk or driving risk score, the remote server 40 may further analyze and/or process the insured driver driving behavior data to determine insured driver driving characteristics and/or typical acuity at block 506A, normal driving conditions for the insured (including road, weather, construction, and/or traffic) at block 506B, and/or other insured or vehicle characteristics (including vehicle maintenance records) at block 506C. In some embodiments, a plurality of driving risk scores may be determined, which may be associated with different driving environments, different insured drivers, and/or different vehicles. In some embodiments, the driving risk or driving risk score may also include one or more risk aversion scores indicating a general risk preference profile or level of the insured driver.

At block 508, the method 500 may include applying the driving risk or driving risk score of the insured to an automobile insurance policy and/or premiums for the insured at or via the remote server 40. This may include adjusting, updating, and/or generating automobile or automotive insurance policies based upon the determined driving risks or driving risk scores, which may further include adjusting, updating, determining, applying, and/or implementing premiums, rates, discounts, surcharges, deductibles, limits, and/or other terms of one or more insurance policies, which terms may be related to price and/or coverage.

At block 510, the method 500 may include applying the driving risk or driving risk score of the insured to one or more non-auto insurance (e.g., health, life, home owners, renters, etc.) policies, premiums, rates, discounts, rewards, and/or points for the insured at the remote server 40. This may include determining associations and/or correlations between the data and risk preferences and/or levels associated with one or more insurance customers and/or insured persons. For example, driving risk scores may be indicative of general risk preferences, which may further affect risk levels relating to health, life, or property insurance policies. Changes to the one or more non-automobile insurance policies may cause the policies to more accurately reflect the risk levels associated with the policies by utilizing the telematics and/or other data. To this end, the server 40 may weight the driving risk scores and/or other risk scores based upon the type of insurance policy to be adjusted.

The method 500 may include presenting information regarding the non-auto insurance policies, or portions thereof, generated from the driving risk or driving risk score for the insured to the insured for their review, approval, and/or modification. In some embodiments, the information may be presented to the insured and/or insurance customer via wireless communication with the mobile device 10 and/or smart vehicle controller 14. The information may then be presented to the user via the display 74 or otherwise. The insured and/or insurance customer may further be presented with one or more options pertaining to insurance policies (e.g., coverage levels, payment options, etc.), which the insured and/or insurance customer may select. Upon selection of options and/or approval from the insured and/or insurance customer, the server 40 may cause adjustments, changes, and/or updates to be implemented regarding the one or more other insurance policies.

XII. Exemplary Usage-Based Insurance

FIG. 6 illustrates an exemplary computer-implemented method 600 of improving accuracy usage-based insurance. In some embodiments, the method 600 may be implemented in whole or in part by one or more components of the telematics system 1 depicted in FIG. 1. For example, the method 600 may be implemented by a server 40 remote from the front-end components 2 (e.g., sensors 20 or 24, vehicles 6 or 8, mobile devices 10, smart vehicle controllers 14, etc.) or another server (not shown). In some embodiments, the front-end components 2 may be used to generate and/or collect data relating to driving behavior of multiple drivers, including an insured driver of the vehicle 8. The method 600 is exemplary and may include additional, fewer, or alternate actions, including those discussed elsewhere herein.

At block 602, the method 600 may include collecting telematics and/or other data associated with driving behavior of one or more insured drivers at or via an insurance provider remote server 40. The telematics and/or other data may be received from a smart vehicle 8 (or other vehicle) or mobile device 10. Such data may include any of the data discussed herein, but data regarding vehicle operation by insured drivers may be particularly useful in determining risks in method 600. In some embodiments, the data may also include data from an accident database 42 and/or a third-party database 44 via the network 30, which data may supplement, verify, and/or contradict some or all of the other collected data.

At block 604, the method 600 may include analyzing the telematics and/or other data collected at or via the remote server 40. Analysis of the data may include determining driving characteristics and/or driving environments for one or more vehicles 8 and/or one or more drivers, in a manner similar to that discussed elsewhere herein.

At block 606, the method 600 may include determining, from analysis of the telematics and/or other data, a specific insured driver who is driving a specific insured vehicle for each trip that the insured vehicle is driven at or via the remote server 40. For example, a family may include multiple family members who are insured on each of a number of vehicles (and who may have different risk profiles and/or driving behavior). The method 600 may determine which family member is driving each vehicle during each vehicle trip in order to determine risk levels associated with each family member and/or to determine a total risk level based upon relative usage of the vehicles by the family members. In some embodiments, the identity of the driver for each trip may be determined by communication between a mobile device 10 associated with the driver and a smart vehicle controller 14 of the vehicle 8.

At block 608, the method 600 may include determining information regarding each vehicle trip at or via the remote server 40 from analysis of the telematics and/or other data. This may include determining what insured vehicle was used for the trip. This may also include when, where, and/or how the identified driver drives for each trip (that they drive the insured vehicle). For example, the server 40 may determined that (for a particular vehicle trip) a specific family member is driving the insured vehicle, as well as the time and location of the trip. The server 40 may further determine driving characteristics and/or driving environments (as discussed elsewhere herein) for the vehicle trip.

At block 610, the method 600 may include developing a driving risk or driving risk score for each insured driver (e.g., for each family member) based upon the analysis of the telematics and/or other data at or via the remote server 40. This may be developed based upon the identified driver determined at block 606 and the information regarding each vehicle trip determined at block 608. Determining the driving risk or score may include analyzing various data types (which may be received from a plurality of sources). These may include information regarding insured driving characteristics (insured driver behavior and/or acuity data) at block 610A, driving environments (road, weather, construction, and/or traffic conditions) at block 610B, and/or other vehicle and/or other driver behavior or action data at block 610C. In some embodiments, the driving risk or driving risk score may also include one or more risk aversion scores indicating a general risk preference profile or level of the insured driver. The driving risk or driving risk scores may be determined using weighted models, computer learning techniques, and/or in a manner similar to any of the methods described herein.

At block 612, the method 600 may include applying the driving risk or driving risk score of one or more of the insured drivers to an automobile insurance policy and/or premiums for the insured at or via the remote server 40. In some embodiments, this may include determining a weighted risk profile including multiple insured drivers (such as family members). This may include adjusting, updating, and/or generating automobile or automotive insurance policies based upon the determined driving risks or driving risk scores, which may further include adjusting, updating, determining, applying, and/or implementing premiums, rates, discounts, surcharges, deductibles, limits, and/or other terms of one or more insurance policies, which terms may be related to price and/or coverage.

At block 614, the method 600 may include applying the driving risk or driving risk scores of one or more of the insured drivers to one or more other (non-automobile) types of insurance policies (e.g., health, life, home owners, renters, etc.) at the remote server 40. Applying the driving risk or driving risk scores may include adjusting, updating, and/or generating one or more of premiums, rates, discounts, rewards, and/or points. This may further include determining associations and/or correlations between the data and risk preferences and/or levels associated with one or more insured persons, as discussed elsewhere herein.

The method may provide a more accurate picture of which family member is driving which type of vehicle (e.g., a higher or lower rated vehicle), when and where they are driving that vehicle (such as on what type of roads, in what type of traffic or weather, and/or the actual mileage (and not estimated mileage) that each family member drives each insured vehicle), and thus more accurate insurance or usage-based insurance may be provided to the insured or family members of the insured.

In one aspect, a computer-implemented method of updating, adjusting, or generating an insurance policy for an insured based upon vehicle usage may be provided. The method may include: (1) collecting or receiving telematics and/or other data at or via a remote server associated with an insurance provider, the telematics and/or other data being associated with driver identification and/or driving behavior of a driver driving an insured vehicle during a specific trip or a group of trips, the insured vehicle being covered by an insurance policy issued by the insurance provider; (2) analyzing the telematics and/or other data, at or via the remote server, to determine who the driver of the insured vehicle was during each trip, such as a specific family member (e.g., either an insured parent or insured teenager); (3) determining over time, at or via the remote server, a summary of vehicle usage for the insured vehicle, the summary of vehicle usage may include (a) an amount that each family member drives the insured vehicle, (b) the driving behavior of each family member for the insured vehicle, and/or (c) when and where (i.e., on what types of roads and/or in what weather, construction, traffic, or road conditions) each family member drives the insured vehicle; and/or (4) updating, adjusting, and/or generating, at or via the remote server, an insurance policy, premium, rate, discount, and/or reward for the insured vehicle and/or for an individual family member based upon the summary of vehicle usage. The method may further include transmitting, via wireless communication, the updated, adjusted, or generated insurance policy from the remote server to an insured or owner of the insured vehicle for their review, approval, and/or modification; and/or receiving from the insured or owner of the insured vehicle, at the remote server, a wireless communication associated with rejection, approval, or modification of the insurance policy by the insured or owner.

The telematics and/or other data may include data associated with, or generated by, mobile devices, such as smart phones, smart glasses, and/or smart wearable electronic devices capable of wireless communication. The telematics and/or other data may include data associated with, or generated by, an insured vehicle or a computer system of the insured vehicle. The telematics and/or other data may include data associated with, or generated by, (i) a vehicle other than the insured vehicle; (ii) vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication; and/or (iii) road side equipment or infrastructure. The method may include additional, fewer, or alternate actions, including those discussed elsewhere herein.

XIII. Exemplary Incentives & Recommendations

FIG. 7 illustrates an exemplary computer-implemented method 700 of providing insurance-related incentives and/or recommendations. In some embodiments, the method 700 may be implemented in whole or in part by one or more components of the telematics system 1 depicted in FIG. 1. For example, the method 700 may be implemented by a server 40 remote from the front-end components 2 (e.g., sensors 20 or 24, vehicles 6 or 8, mobile devices 10, smart vehicle controllers 14, etc.) or another server (not shown). In some embodiments, the front-end components 2 may be used to generate and/or collect data relating to driving behavior of multiple drivers, including an insured driver of the vehicle 8. In further embodiments, the front-end components 2 may be used to present information, such as recommendations, to the driver of the vehicle 8. The method 700 is exemplary and may include additional, fewer, or alternate actions, including those discussed elsewhere herein.

At block 702, the method 700 may include collecting telematics and/or other data associated with driving behavior of an insured at or via an insurance provider remote server 40. The telematics and/or other data may be received from a smart vehicle 8 (or other vehicle) or mobile device 10. Such data may include any of the data discussed herein, but data regarding vehicle operation by an insured may be particularly useful in determining risks and/or recommendations in method 700. In some embodiments, the data may also include data from an accident database 42 and/or a third-party database 44 via the network 30, which data may supplement, verify, and/or contradict some or all of the other collected data.

At block 704, the method 700 may include analyzing the telematics and/or other data collected at or via the remote server 40. Analysis of the data may include determining driving characteristics and/or driving environments for the vehicle 8 and/or insured driver, in a manner similar to that discussed elsewhere herein.

At block 706, the method 700 may include determining a driving risk score or driving behavior summary for an insured driver at or via the remote server 40. The driving risk score or driving behavior summary may be determined based upon analysis of the telematics and/or other data received or collected at block 702. In some embodiments, one or more driving risk scores may be determined by analyzing information regarding driving characteristics (insured vehicle data, and/or insured driver behavior and/or acuity data) at block 706A, driving environments (road, weather, construction, and/or traffic conditions or data) at block 706B, and/or other vehicle and/or other driver behavior or action data at block 706C. The driving behavior summary may include information regarding risk levels for an insured driver and/or insured vehicle. In some embodiments, the driving behavior summary may include a driver profile or information regarding recommended changes to the insured driver's operation of the vehicle. In some embodiments, the driving risk score or driving behavior summary may also include one or more risk aversion scores indicating a general risk preference profile or level of the insured driver. The driving risk scores or driving behavior summary may be determined using weighted models, computer learning techniques, and/or in a manner similar to any of the methods described herein.

At block 708, the method 700 may include applying the driving risk or driving risk score of the insured to an automobile insurance policy and/or premiums for the insured at or via the remote server 40. This may include adjusting, updating, and/or generating automobile or automotive insurance policies based upon the determined driving risks or driving risk scores, which may further include adjusting, updating, determining, applying, and/or implementing premiums, rates, discounts, surcharges, deductibles, limits, and/or other terms of one or more insurance policies, which terms may be related to price and/or coverage.

At block 710, the method 700 may include generating and/or sending communications related to insurance-based incentives and/or cost savings from the remote server 40 to the insured and/or insurance customer. The insurance-based incentives and/or cost savings may be determined by the server 40 based upon the driving behavior summary and/or analysis of the driving behavior or driving risk score of the insured determined at block 704 based upon the telematics and/or other data. In some embodiments, the insurance-based incentives may include discounts, surcharges, credits, points, and/or other price or non-price adjustments to an insurance policy that are related to driver behavior and/or vehicle usage in certain driving environment. For example, the server 40 may determined that the insured driver engages in low-risk driving behavior by following other vehicles at a suitable distance, resulting in less braking. The server 40 may determine a discount and send a communication to the driver indicating both the discount and the reason therefore.

At block 712, the method 700 may include generating and/or sending communications related to insurance-based recommendation from the remote server 40 to the insured and/or insurance customer. The recommendations may be determined by the server 40 based upon the driving behavior summary and/or analysis of the driving behavior or driving risk score of the insured determined at block 704 based upon the telematics and/or other data. The recommendations may include instructions or actions the insured driver may take to reduce the risk associated with driving the vehicle. Such actions may include changing speed, following a recommended route, increasing distance from other vehicles, turning on headlights, etc. In some embodiments, the recommendations may also include indications of discounts, surcharges, credits, points, and/or other price or non-price adjustments to an insurance policy that may result from the insured driver implementing or not implementing the recommendations. For example, the server 40 may determine that the insured driver engages in high-risk driving behavior by following other vehicles too closely, resulting in excess braking. The server 40 may determine a recommendation regarding increasing following distance and send a communication to the driver indicating the recommendation. The server 40 may further determine a possible discount the driver may achieve by increasing following distance, which may be included in the communication to the driver. In some embodiments, the server 40 may further receive data from the mobile device 10 and/or smart vehicle controller 14 indicating whether the insured driver has taken actions to implement the recommendation by increasing following distance. If the data indicate that following distance has increased, the server 40 may then determine and apply an appropriate discount or implement other appropriate adjustments to the insurance policy.

In some embodiments, the communications sent from the server 40 at block 710 and/or block 712 may be presented to the insured for their review and/or action. In some embodiments, the information may be presented to the insured and/or insurance customer via wireless communication with the mobile device 10 and/or smart vehicle controller 14. The information may then be presented to the user via the display 74 or otherwise. In some embodiments, the insured and/or insurance customer may further be presented with one or more options pertaining to insurance policies (e.g., coverage levels, payment options, etc.), which the insured and/or insurance customer may select.

In one aspect, a computer-implemented method of providing insurance-based incentives (e.g., cost savings) and/or recommendations for auto insurance may be provided. The method may include: (1) collecting telematics and/or other data associated with driving behavior of an insured, at or via a remote server associated with an insurance provider, the insured having an auto insurance policy with the insurance provider; (2) determining a risk aversion score and/or driving behavior summary for the insured, at or via the remote server, based upon analysis of the telematics and/or other data collected, the analysis of the telematics and/or other data may include identifying, at or via the remote server: (i) insured driving characteristics (e.g., speed, braking, acceleration, turning, and/or other driving characteristics); (ii) types of roads that the insured typically drives on (e.g., intersections, city streets, and/or highways) and/or types of conditions that the insured typically drives in (e.g., weather, traffic, construction, or road conditions); and/or (iii) a daily commute to and from work for the insured; (3) identifying, at or via the remote server, risky driving behavior of the insured based upon the risk aversion score and/or driving behavior summary; (4) identifying, at or via the remote server, recommendations for the insured to take or follow to reduce driving risk associated with the risky driving behavior identified; and/or (5) transmitting the recommendations for the insured to take or follow to reduce driving risk from the remote server to a mobile or computing device of the insured. The method may include estimating, at or via the remote server, cost savings on auto insurance that the insured may or could receive if the insured followed the recommendations to reduce driving risk; and/or transmitting the cost savings on auto insurance from the remote server to the mobile or computing device of the insured. The method may include monitoring, at or via the remote server, whether the insured followed all or some of the recommendations to reduce driving risk; and/or if so, updating or adjusting an insurance policy, premium, rate, or discount for the insured based upon the insured following all or some of the recommendations to reduce driving risk.
