INTRODUCTION

PART 1

RESEARCH

Putting the people back into premiums WHAT

WHY

The RSA brief: “Design a means of making car insurance more affordable for young people, namely students, by encouraging safer driving behaviour.”

The main reasons young drivers are involved in accidents including their inexperience, misjudgments, over-confidence and a need to show off. Insurance companies base their decisions solely on facts and figures. There are no personality traits that young drivers possess that would affect their premium.

WHERE

A in-car device combined with services to help drivers developing better driving habits. Drivers use the device mainly while driving on road.

WHEN

The user would get the product / service at the early stage of driving on road to help developing good driving habits as soon as possible.

WHO

The design processes were focusing on younger generations especially teenage drivers. Improper driving behaviours occur among this group so it has chosen to be the target group.

PROJECT PLAN

HOW

The product / service is considered to be affordable and carefully designed for the age group so it would be user -friendly.

Design research is foundational to creating products, services, and systems that respond to human needs. In the public and international development sectors, understanding and meeting human needs are critical for improved livelihoods and better governance.

As the first stage of this project, the role of research process is pointing out key issues and leading the direction of design. Comprehensive secondary research is considered to be useful including data from previous research, insurance company and expert interviews. Based on the key findings, a series of primary research was done such as user survey and video taping of driving behaviours.

From the several issues identified from the initial brainstorming and research, the group developed 3 insights which are: Attractive people, advertisements and technology. The topics outlined all relate to distractions to the driver. It can be debated that the lack of experience can be the main reason of crashing, however the lack of experience can also contribute to how easily distracted the driver is.

At the end of the research process, we as a group delivered our design opportunities: 1. Encouraging safer driving behaviour 2. Camera eye recognition and warning system 3. Intuitive in-car technology e.g. temperature sensors to control air conditioning

BEHAVIOUR OF YOUNG DRIVERS

BLACK BOX CAR INSURANCE

CAR INSURANCE PREMIUMS

ACCIDENT STATISTICS

‘There is a wealth of research and casualty data showing that young drivers - particularly young male drivers - are at a much higher risk of crashing than older drivers’ (Brake, 2005). The statistics say that males between the ages of 17-24 are seven times more at risk than other male drivers. This figure rises to seventeen times more at risk when they are driving between 2am and 5am.

‘If you’re willing to prove that you’re a safe driver you could pay less for your cover with a Black box car insurance policy’ (Confused , 2012).

Liaison with the AA Insurance and Financial services has attracted the interest of Ian Crowder, the Public Relations Manager, and has agreed to share his insight and several resources regarding uninsured, and young drivers.

Alongside the statistics on accidents, further study has shown that, although it’s rarely covered by media, driving is one of the most common activities that can cause fatal injuries to young people. Their statistics show that:

Looking into the insurance premiums for young drivers. Crowder states that, although drivers under 24 represent around 1 in 8 drivers, they are responsible for 1 in 3 crashes; young men being 10 times more likely to be involved in a fatal accident than drivers aged 35 or over, young wom- en being five times more likely. Insurance claims on the AA database also reflect this statistic:

- 30% of drivers age 17-24 killed in road crashes are over the drink- drive limit

It is believed that the reason teenagers crash more between 17-24 is because the frontal lobe part of brain does not develop until 25. The Frontal lobe is responsible for, emotion, risk taking and decision-making. Therefore, the immature brains of young drivers are often the cause of most of their accidents. Young drivers are also more likely to ‘seek thrills’ from driving fast and cornering at high speed than older drivers.

Even sticking to the speed limit can be too fast in the wrong conditions - such as on bendy country roads - but young drivers, particularly male drivers, may be reluctant to drive under the speed limit for fear of ‘losing face’ in front of friends’ (Brake, 2005).

The behavioral changes when with friends are ones that researchers are finding common when studying why youngsters are more at risk. Current research has shown that young drivers become even more at risk when they are carrying passengers.

Telematics was introduced to avoid the high premiums costs that are associated with young drivers car insurance. ‘Telematics is a method of monitoring a vehicle. By combining a GPS system with on-board diagnostics it’s possible to record – and map – exactly where a car is and how fast it’s traveling, and cross reference that with how a car is behaving internally’ (Carter, 2012).

‘Once the box is fitted, your speed, braking and cornering style, the time of day you tend to drive and the types of road you travel on will all be tracked. Should the data collected indicate that you are a safe driver, your premiums will fall throughout the year to reflect this.

The AA claims that motorists who are deemed to be safer drivers could see a reduction in their overall premiums in just 60 days. However, not everyone will receive a discount. Those seen to be exceeding speed limits, cornering sharply, breaking heavily or driving a lot at night are likely to see their premiums rise instead’

- Average claim cost for male drivers aged 17-24 is £4,500 - Average claim cost for female drivers aged 17-24 is £2,00 - Average claim cost for drivers aged 35 and above is: £1,200 (male) and £1,000 (female)

- 25% of young drivers admit to using a mobile device to e-mail/tweet/ access social networks while driving - 1 in 4 (26%) of young drivers have been involved in a crash whilst driving within six months of passing their test - AA/Populus study shows that 16% of 18-24 year olds have travelled as a passenger in a car where they knew the driver was over the drink drive limit, more than twice as many as the next age group: 7% of 25- 35 year olds - Road crashes are the biggest killer of young people in the world.

Insurance premiums for females and are lowering for males because of the European on gender discrimination law (Effective end of December 2012) Government are taking measures into investigating artificial claims. In the long term, the regulations put in place from the investigations can potentially reduce insurance premiums

EGAL

NVIRONMENTAL

Car insurance affected by artificial claims and duration of replacement car hire, regardless of whether the accident involves young drivers.

Rise in Tuition fees: The rise in tuition fees have discouraged students from going into university.

Those without higher educations will have to deal with low pay jobs, whereas students whom graduate from universities will have student loans to handle.

GPS

Peer Pressure: A study on the subconscious need in young drivers to impress when in the presence of friends as passengers, has shown to have affected their driving.

Independence: Most young drivers do not pay directly for their insurance: the majority, if not all, are paid for by their parents.

Black box: A method of tracking your driving behaviour and gives money back, as well as potential decrease on car insurance. The black box encourages safer driving.

Driving simulators: Are capable of introducing basic hazard perception skills to the driver, but most are used for studying driver behaviour.

People driving without insurance: People without insurance have a higher chance of leaving without con- sequences after a crash. Although this does not directly affect insurance premiums this is a potential gap in the market that can be looked into.

People fear youngsters Inexperience is the most associated attributes to a young driver. Be- cause of such there is a fear that young drivers will use their inexperi- ence as an excuse to drive irrationally.

OTHER

SURVEY - YOUNG DRIVER BEHAVIOUR From the survey result of young drivers (age 19-24) we learnt that inexperience is the main cause for accidents. Besides, distractions from both internal and external of the car caused crashes. Theses distractions including phone calls, GPS, peers and partner, parents, music, attractive people, billboards, sunlight and bad weathers.

As shown in the result, phone calls take the first place among all kinds of distractions.

Up to 73% of young drivers admit that they use mobile phone while driving and some of them even text messages.

One of other findings of this survey is that young drivers usually holding a good mood on road and most of them are willing to respect road regulations. However, nearly 30% of young drivers would behave better while driving with parents.

Another factor affects driving behaviour is the car price. 26% of the young drivers claimed that they would drive more carefully if the car was worth more.

CONCEPT DEFINITION

CONCEPTS

In Car Technology

OVERVIEW Concept design is aiming to develop different design opportunities and to dig deeper about user needs. Two problem areas are defined based on the group research: Solving problems related to bad driving behaviour on road and using mobile phone while driving. The final objective is clear which is to provide affordable car insurance for young drivers based on reduction of accident rate among this population.

Further research about existing in car technologies helps to support design concepts.

3D printing technology, air pressure detector and human-machine interaction are used in initial concepts. The use of existing technologies in innovative design is the big idea of the whole design stage.

Design concepts related to using mobile phone in car are “Air trigger” and “Sticky wheel” while another concept is focusing on building good driving habit named “Recorder fantasy”.

Three design concepts are mapped and defined according to three essential aspects: What kind of in-car technology is utilized, what user needs is met and what kind of distraction issue is it aiming to solve.

OVERVIEW

CONCEPT EVALUATION

The chosen concept is developed to be mature and its system including service design and using scenario are also completed at development stage. The key point of the chosen concept “Recorder fantasy” is user behaviour change, which is a wide and complex problem with human factors and psychological issues involved. Based on study the Kolb’s learning cycle, the feedback and learning cycle for young drivers to develop good driving habits is set carefully. As in the blueprint, both front stage and back stage operations of the system are shown clearly step by step and it also indicates the relationships between stages.

The result of survey from further user study indicates younger generation’s attitude towards driving behaviours. From learning characteristics of users, the form of the product and system are defined with key words “personalize, rewarding and affordable”.

The type of indicating information could affect the system efficiency and accuracy. From comparing visual and audio alert of existing in-car warning system, the proper method of giving the driver real-time feedback is selected.

After completed the system functions and service design, the final form of the product has gone through a long period of evolution. 3D figurine is replaced by modular DIY figurine but the key point is remained as “always cool and wanted”.

CONCEPT ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES

EFFICIENCY

OVERVIEW The strengths and weaknesses analysis of the chosen concept shows that there are many issues in this design and improvements are needed. The role of design in this process is optimising the concept to achieve the maximization of its strength and lower the impacts of its weaknesses.

AUDIO ALERT V.S. WARNING LIGHT In existing in-car warning system design, two types of alert are applied: warning light with or without audio alert. From research and analysing it is clear to see that audio alert always occurs with higher urgency degree while warning light is usually indicates status with lower urgency degree.

The real-time feedbacks provided by Recorder Fantasy suppose to be accepted by its user immediately thus the user would be able to notice the fault and to improve driving behaviour in time. From repeating this process, the learning cycle can be built and the system could work efficiently.

Another reason why the audio alert is necessary is that it could help to keep driver’s eye on road while warning light could distract the driver.

“ Play on.”

INTRODUCTION

Lego, consists of colourful interlocking plastic bricks and an accompanying array of gears, minifigures and various other parts. Lego bricks can be assembled and connected in many ways, to construct such objects as vehicles, buildings, and even working robots. Anything constructed can then be taken apart again, and the pieces used to make other objects. Since 1963, Lego pieces have been manufactured from a strong, resilient plastic known as ABS. The moulds are permitted a tolerance of up to two micrometres, to ensure the bricks remain connected.

KEY FINDINGS KEY FINDINGS - Human facial components = Personalized unique faces - Freely combined components = Great fun of DIY - Colourful and expressive = Delightful and passionate

- Basic bricks to complex models - Simple is beautiful & Less is more - Sometimes animal could be cooler than human - No more than 10 colours would be good - The outfit or uniform can stand for special skills or occupation

LED INDICATOR The LED indicator is divided into 4 parts each to indicate conditions of left turn, right turn, braking and the point amount. The Indicator lights up in white colour while the system detectes movement of the vehicle and starts to work automatically. At the moment of braking or turning the car, green light shows if the driving operation is safe while red light indicates the braking is too sharp or a cornering turn occurs.

Indicators are in 3 different designs but with same functions.

Users can choose one which they think is easy to read or look cooler than others. Solar panels are set at the top of the base to power the indicator. The battery keeps gaining energy from the sun even the car is parked. System will turns off if there is no movement detected in 10 minutes.

CASE STUDY

Be warned while drive improperly.

Case study has been done by researchers about forming a new habit such as eating a piece of fruit with lunch or doing a 15 minute run each day.

Participants were then asked questions such as whether the behaviour was 'hard not to do' and could be done 'without thinking'. The result showed that the average time when the automaticity was reached was after 66 days.

Other findings from the experiment are: - Missing a single day did not reduce the chance of forming a habit.

- Other types of habits may well take much longer.

Young drivers drive on road.

---- Prof. Wardle, UCL

- A sub-group took much longer than the others to form their habits, perhaps suggesting some people are 'habit-resistant'.

CONCLUSION The Recorder Fantasy is an affodable in-car device combined with series of services to help inexperienced young drivers to build good driving habits. It meets its design objectives by providing customized product and systemised service for young drivers.

Using existing technologies to change user’s behaviour is achieved by the design.

DIY components makes the hi-tech device delightful and full of the sense of participating. The LED indicator is special designed in 3 forms in order to ensure the interface is understandable and efficient for people with different minds.

It attracts the user by colourful outfits and adorable “face expressions” and it helps to build good driving habits using its powerful recording and warning system. The learning cycle is built with constant audio feedbacks and indicating LED screen during the driving process.

Further study of this design project is needed such as to define the “Points-reward” system with a lot of user experiments and statistic analysis. In making the system more practical and profitable, insurance companies must join the research and give necessary supports such as providing data.
