Same here, I always considered myself a cautious driver until that tracker humbled me real quick. Turns out my "gentle braking" wasn't as gentle as I thought—who knew? But honestly, aside from the insurance savings, I've noticed my brakes and tires lasting way longer now. It's funny how small adjustments end up saving way more cash than you'd expect... kinda makes you rethink other habits too.

Haha, felt this one. When I got my tracker, it flagged me for "sharp turns" all the time. Thought I was just smoothly navigating city streets... nope. But yeah, those small tweaks definitely add up over time.

Haha, same here—I swore I was braking like a grandma, but the tracker disagreed. It’s funny how our perception of "gentle" driving can be way off from reality. Don’t sweat it though—those trackers are super sensitive at first, but once you get used to their quirks, you'll be surprised how quickly your habits adjust. Plus, the savings are totally worth a little bruised ego... or at least that's what I tell myself.

Couldn't agree more—when I first started using mine, I was convinced it was faulty. Turns out my "smooth" braking was actually pretty abrupt. Makes me wonder what else I'm misjudging about my driving habits...

Same here—I recently installed one of those driving trackers for insurance discounts, and it flagged my "careful" cornering as risky. Definitely an eye-opener...makes me rethink how cautious I actually am behind the wheel.
