GEICO DriveEasy Pro 4+

I’ve been getting into the habit of pulling into nearby parking lots/spots before using my phone to text dispatch back. The 4 Stars is because it can’t detect that and assumes I’m texting while driving. I’m a mobile locksmith and receive my jobs via text message but they don’t translate well when using Siri. If the app can detect that I’m stopped in a parking space or parking lot, gas station etc. I’d give it 5 stars because other than that, pretty accurate.

Don’t hit a yellow light and stop it will ding you for slowing down too fast and forget it if someone cuts you off! Any time someone else drives like a moron you adapt to their driving to get out of their way. This app will ding your score for all the wrong reasons. One way to avoid getting a breaking too fast is to roll through the stop sign or light. Not a very good promotion of driving defensively, more like how many accidents can you cause by holding up traffic. Acceleration is also an issue when you start in first gear. Got dinged for going too fast from 0-8 mph in 1.8 seconds. This application is just a way for Geico to charge you more based on the way the rest of the idiots on the road drive not the way you drive. The app is perfect if you were the only one an the road and the yellow lights lasted long enough for you to slow down in time to stop slowly. Worst idea ever Geico!

The idea is fine, but it needs fixes that go with reality, there are cornering where you go below the 25 limit and you go 20 with a lot of traffic, the curve is safe at those two speeds, but if you lower the speed you are risking having an accident, the application does not understand that, it has a map that says what there is a cornering and if you did not reduce the speed, you are bad according to the application, that is very dangerous and of course it can produce an accident, the same is repeated with the smoothness of the handling, not as much as the cornering , the rest is fine, it is just adapting!!!!
