You can't wander very far at an insurance technology conference without someone mentioning telematics. OK, maybe I was the one that brought it up, but still, the subject is at the top of many people's minds.

I got the UK angle on this subject from Jamie Macgregor of Celent who explained that British insurers have a slightly different approach to the subject than insurers operating in the Colonies.

Insurers in England are targeting young drivers and offering telematics as an option to allow them to actually prove to the insurers that they are not awful drivers and older drivers that need to prove they are still young enough to operate a vehicle safely..
