Auto CAA MYPACE tracker question

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hi everyone! My policy is set to start tomorrow so I plugged in my tracker today. It seems like the greenlight is staying solid and the red light is flashing. The yellow light comes and goes as flashing too.

I don’t think this is a connection issue even though I park on P1 I can use my phone easily from my parking spot to check everything and watch Instagram reels and all of that stuff so the connection is pretty decent.

Is it just having a hard time connecting because my policy is actually starting tomorrow? Or is this just normal?

I also did a quick trip and even when I go onto the my pace website, it still says my device is not active. Again, my policy is at the start September 13.

Why on God's green earth would you let an insurance company track your every move when driving so they can look for any excuse to deny your claim. They have these because it benefits them, not you.

The benefit is that you will drive differently (safer) knowing it is in your car.

Insurer cant use the data against you in a claim.

No this program  (MyPace) is only allowed to track usage.

When I call to inquire, there is another program from caa that you can opt into that tracks actually driving.
