  • Publication number: 20130304519
    Abstract: A system and method for estimating loss propensity of a vehicle and providing driving information are provided. A loss propensity estimation server receives information from a telematics device installed in a vehicle, determines at least one loss cost area through which vehicle has traveled, and calculates a numeric loss cost factor based upon the at least one loss cost area relative to the amount of risk indicated by the vehicle's garaging loss cost. The numeric loss cost factor can be transmitted to an insurer for subsequent use by the insurer in underwriting or pricing a future insurance policy. A driving information database in the loss propensity estimation server stores driving information obtained from the telematics device installed in the vehicle, which can subsequently be transmitted to an insurer.

  • Publication number: 20120084103
    Abstract: A system for estimating loss costs for a vehicle is provided. A server is provided in communication with a network, and electronically obtains location information over a period of time from a telematics device installed in a vehicle and transmitted to the server over the network. At least one driving territory is identified, through which the vehicle is driven. At least one garaging loss cost associated with the vehicle is identified, and the system calculates at least one level of exposure for the vehicle based upon the at least one driving territory through which the vehicle is driven. The at least one garaging loss cost and the at least one level of exposure are processed to calculate a driving loss cost for the vehicle, which can be transmitted to a third party in communication with the server over the network for subsequent use by the third party.
