Anyone else noticing the ads on TV for QBE's OBDII 'Insurance Box'?
It's something I've known would be upon us in the future...and now it's here. Big Brother (QBE) can now monitor our exact location, speed, direction, braking at any time we're driving, and it's a breach of your policy not to use it (so you'd be uninsured). It appears to you can still get a regular policy though, but if you choose the 'Insurance Box' policy, you're locked in! http://insurancebox.com.au/tour Personally I'll be avoiding this kind of device and monitoring as long as I possibly can, but I predict that soon enough all insurance agencies will offer this kind of product and those who don't want it will be hit with a cost premium not to be monitored... The next line of thought is - how long until we've all got these devices and other agencies are beginning to request access too...? Thoughts?
