The information is sent back to My Policy, who’ll give you a driving score based on how well you drive. You can view your driving score at any time via your personalised online dashboard. Score well and you could earn a discount on renewal.

Before you complete a My Policy quote, you’ll be asked how many miles you want to drive. The less miles you do, the cheaper your policy may be. If you run out of your stated miles you can buy extra miles to add to your policy.

My Policy also provides a telematics policy for low mileage drivers over 25, which means drivers of any age can benefit from lower premiums based on safe driving and low miles.

My Policy optional extras

My Policy also gives you the choice of adding optional extras to your policy. Be aware that they come at an additional cost, so they could impact the price of your premium. Options include: 

• Motor uninsured loss recovery – legal expenses cover to help you reclaim any uninsured losses if you’re involved in an accident that wasn’t your fault. This also covers you for legal defence costs if you’re charged with a motoring offence, vehicle identity theft costs and pothole damage claims against a local authority.

Read the details carefully, as terms and conditions will apply.
