I drive my car like I stole it. I will continue to drive my car and beat on it like it owes me money. I will never put a dongle in my obd2 port from my insurance company. I will never have any stupid app I don't need on my phone and my car is no longer hooked up to onstar. Fuck that. You put that shit in your car, you will never see lower rates, you'll just see smarter advertising. However, if you drive like me, I'm sure they'll charge you more or drop you.

I drive my car like I stole it.

So you drive it calmly and follow the rules?

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

But not too calmly and politely because that's also suspicious

Not calmly, I use the gas pedal and I'll drive 5 over the speed limit unless it's residential, then I'm cool.

I agree with you, but I still hope for your sake and others that you drive relatively safe and make good driving choices lmao

I do, I don't drive dangerously, I just like to feel the g's when I hit the gas and I don't like to be behind anyone at a light because 99 out of 100 times they're either going to sit on their phone, or take off slower than I can walk. If I'm in front of you, I promise you'll never have a second wasted because of my driving.
