Business Case
Insurance companies define premiums for drivers based on vehicle value, age of driver and sex. Let’s assume that the driver who frequently drives the vehicle on road as X and the driver who rarely uses the vehicle as Y. So, X has more probability to meet with accidents and collect claim. But both X and Y pay equal premiums as they fall into the same category according to the rules and regulations. Insurance premiums do not take the vehicle usage into account, both who drives less and who drives more charged the same. So do you think it’s fair? Don’t you think that Insurance premiums should be calculated based on the risk?
Solution
Insurance companies should define premiums based on actual vehicle usage. They should be provided with the facility of real time monitoring of driver’s driving behavior while providing alerts and tips to drivers.
