Description
General Insurance of Cyprus is leading the way again! Their latest innovation, the Drive Safe mobile app, records driving behaviour, helping drivers to become even better on the road and to be more eco-friendly, as well as earning them a discount on the renewal of their insurance. In this way, General Insurance of Cyprus is contributing to the effort by the state to reduce the road traffic accidents.
With Drive Safe, the driver is given information at the end of every journey about their driving behaviour and a score (0 – 100). The driver is immediately able to recognise weak areas in their driving and improve on them straight away during their next trip. The driver can also look at their driving behaviour over time and see how it compares with other drivers. At the same time, they can also see whether they will be entitled to a discount on renewal of their insurance Policy with General Insurance of Cyprus.
How does it work Using the sensors and Location Service of the mobile phone, Drive Safe is able to identify the beginning and end of each journey and evaluate the driving behavior of the user/vehicle. The score for each trip and the total score of the driver is calculated using the advanced scoring model of Drive Safe which takes into consideration: • Driving in excess of the speed limit,
• Using the mobile phone whilst driving,
• Braking (sudden and aggressive braking),
• Acceleration (sharp and aggressive acceleration) and
Driving during the most dangerous hours (22:00 - 04:00).
The scoring ranges from 0 - 100, with 100 being the optimum.
Drive Safe provides the driver with a full and detailed analysis of every trip, pointing out those areas where the driving was not ideal.
Battery and internet connection
Drive Safe has been designed and developed to ensure minimal battery consumption. When not driving, the expected consumption is negligible (Drive Safe does not require an Internet connection to operate. However, to improve the logging process, it is recommended that you have Wi-Fi and / or Data (3G / 4G) enabled.
Personal Data
The use of state-of-the-art mobile technology to evaluate driving behaviour requires the use of personal data, an issue which General Insurance of Cyprus takes very seriously and we have ensured that the confidentiality of the data is absolutely secure.
Beyond the overall driving score, no one else, other than the user, has access to personally identifiable data (e.g., its routes, detailed driving behaviour). We have ensured the complete separation of the storage of the driving behaviour data (sensor data) from the personal data and no interfacing is feasible. Each process we use is in accordance with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of the European Union.

As soon as I used this app I crashed my car in the front car. So be careful when you install this app.

Great app for feedback on your driving. Helps to make you aware of phone usage, speed, harsh breaking, you become more aware of how you drive. I find it has made me more considerate and careful, so rechcing the stress of driving.

★★☆☆☆Tasos Constantinou· Dec 9, 2018
The idea of the app is great, even for people that are not customers of GIC. But the fact that the app is constantly running in the background, waiting for me to start moving, is not good. I don't mind the fact that you have to disable all these settings, for it to run in the background, if you want to keep using it with your screen locked etc., but I'd like to be able to tell it WHEN I'm starting my journey and not auto-detect it. The battery draining is bad. Out if my first four journeys, it tracked only my third. I'm not driving every time I get in a car, sometimes I'm a passenger, so i don't want the app to track first, waste my battery and then tell it that I wasn't driving. You have a good thing going on, but badly executed. Don't let all this promotion go to waste

I downloaded the app and when I try to register as a new user I added my email and clicked except terms and conditions nothing happens. So I tried on another device but the same thing happened. Would really like to use this app for my teenager. Pls, let me know if this can be fixed
