Reply to comment by thomasvista in LPT: If your insurance offers the app/device to track your driving you can usually do it for a month drive really well and get the discount for the remainder of the time you remain insured through them. by Unholy-paper

Well then, the technology is then correct to flag you for higher insurance. Good thing is that you are aware of it and could maybe work on it. You know you are doing dangerous things behind the wheel but you don't care about fixing them since you see no value in that. Your time is more valuable than well being of other people. Maybe a thought of keeping insurance money in your pocket would be enough to convince you to be more careful while driving?

It's not a comment about your specific driving, but to people in general. I'm sure a lot of people would think twice about their driving habits if it meant saving money.

How come this does not apply to people on bikes they should be able to predict a car can go faster and drive on the same surface the bike is on why doesn't the bike move over and maintain a clear motor vehicle lane and not cause a safety issue by going slower then the published speed limit without proper hazard lights. In of it self is a fine and a ticket in most states.

In Florida, bicycles have every right to be on the road, by law.

Yeah they also need to obey traffic laws such as stoping at stop signs and red lights yielding at yield signs and doing the speed limit or have the appropriate hazards to display they cant go the speed limit. Frankly i think they should have a licence and insurance as well as all states require any road vehicles to have them.
