Most drivers are pretty safe – but there’s always room for improvement! So AAMI is letting you record how you’re tracking across a few key behaviours and qualify for special offers.
And don’t stress about your premiums or excess payments! Your data will not count against you at claims or renewal time!
Accelerating smoothly means you're driving more safely, helping the planet, and easing the pressure on your wallet.
Accelerating a little too harshly — for example, when taking off at the lights or running up to a highway — can be dangerous, and really eat up your petrol.
Stay at least three seconds behind the vehicle in front of you. That should give you enough time to brake gradually and safely if anything happens.
If you’re driving while distracted, or tailgating, you can wind up quickly slamming on the brakes — which can lead to a collision.
If you’re on an uninterrupted stretch of road, like a highway, cruise control can be a great help.
Leave plenty of journey time — many drivers don’t even notice their speed gradually creeping up when they’re in a rush. Stay safe and watch the speed limit.
Stay smooth and precise when you hit those corners. Accelerate gradually, and only when the turn is complete.
We’ve all rushed a corner or two in our time, especially when we’re in a hurry or trying to squeeze in a turn before the lights change. Give yourself time to react quickly and corner safely.
If you don’t have a phone mount, try get into the habit of not touching your phone by keeping it in the glove box or on the backseat, or switching it to “do not disturb”.
Even a moment’s distraction can be dangerous for drivers, passengers, and pedestrians.
