The State Farm driving discount commercial is the WORST

And it totally backfires because the theme is supposed to be "look how nice we are, giving discounts" but all I get from it is "your insurance is so expensive that this woman would rather go through labor in the car than go over the speed limit and lose her discount." Also she definitely shits her pants in the car with her kid.

Yeah that commercial is terrible..

Also fun fact: Progressives drive monitoring program is an app now.. Why is that fun you ask... It knows what side of the car you enter. So picking it up, moving it ,loud music , texting and all that goodness is reported back.. You've been warned..

GPS is nowhere near that accurate.

Has nothing to do with the GPS. Has to do with the motion sensor in your phone.

I think this should be required for driving. If you drive like an a-hole, you should have to pay higher rates. Not sure why everyone is so adverse to these devices. You literally carry around a phone with you 24/7 that monitors everything you do but you are worried about someone watching your driving? Your phone already does it.

Yeah but that's pretty self explanatory.

It's a future mandatory "feature" of all cars.

Not to mention the device reports using data on your cell phone, causing some people to have outrageous cell bills.

fricking State Farm just can’t get their shite together the last 5-8 years.


My advice: stay far away from State Farm, Allstate, and Liberty Mutual. Go with one of the reputable “smaller” companies. Your wallet will thank you.

How? And what’s to stop me from putting the phone in on the passenger’s side before getting in?

What is "a-hole" driving? Fast acceleration? Hardly a-hole behavior. Driving 40 on a 60mph road is just as dangerous.



It's here for you.

FYI I have the State Farm beacon in my vehicle. I have 4 and 5 stars on everything except the “phone use” category. You check my trips and you can see little phone emojis at damn near every red light. I get it, I’m not supposed to use it while driving, but it’s bullshite that it isn’t affecting my driving safety while simultaneously lowering my discount.

My discount is $80 FWIW so I’m not complaining too much. It’s free money.

Could it be because auto insurance is expensive in general, so anything helps?

Could it be because Drive Safe and Save offers her the cheapest rate amongst all companies, and she doesn’t want to lose her rate?

the safe driving discount seems like a scam

Yeah, curious if it monitors going 50 in the 70 mph passing lane.

I want to find the person responsible for the Emu commercials and execute them with a 50 caliber machine gun.
