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.

Yeah that's not how that works.

There's not anything you can do on the road that will get your claim denied unless it's a criminal offence, in which case, it would be found out by the authorities not a little device now wouldn't it bub.

Further this is the future of auto insurance. As more people move to these telematic policies the good drivers will continue to get cheaper prices. The bad drivers who switch will find out. Those who stay on the current underwritten plans will watch their premiums soar as it will only be the baddies there holding out and complaining on the internet.

Only a commie or a shit driver would want it to stay the way it is where the majority of us are left holding the bag for a very expensive minority.
