  • Publication number: 20250091547
    Abstract: A method of driver behavior that includes generating, by a mobile device located inside a vehicle, telematics data associated with operation of the vehicle, and transmitting, from the mobile device to one or more processors via wireless communication, the telematics data in real-time. The method also includes analyzing the telematics data to determine whether a driving score for a driver, determining whether the driving score is greater than a threshold value, determining a discount based upon the driving score being higher than the threshold, and generating a communication based upon the discount. The method further includes transmitting the communication.

  • Publication number: 20250083637
    Abstract: In system and methods for pre-generating insurance claims, accident data associated with a vehicle accident involving a driver may be collected. The accident data may be analyzed, and a likely severity of the vehicle accident may be determined based upon the analysis of the accident data. An estimated insurance claim may be generated based upon the determined likely severity of the vehicle accident, and transmitted, via wireless communication, from one or more remote servers to a mobile device associated with the driver to facilitate presenting all, or a portion of the estimated insurance claim to the driver or the insured. A wireless communication from the driver or insured indicating approval, rejection or modification of the estimated insurance claim may be received. The estimated insurance claim may be handled in accordance with the approval, rejection or modification.
