Abstract

Telematics1 techniques enable insurers to capture the driving behavior of policyholders and correspondingly offer the personalized vehicle insurance rate, namely the usage-based insurance (UBI). A risky driving behavior scoring model for the personalized automobile insurance pricing was proposed based on telematics data. Firstly, three typical UBI pricing modes were analyzed. Drive behavior rate factors (DBRF) pricing mode was proposed based on mileage rate factors (MRF), in which insurance rate for each vehicle can be determined by the evaluation of individual driving behavior using OBD data. Then, on the basis of the analysis of influencing factors of safe driving, a driving behavior score model was established for DBRF by the improved EW-AHP (Entropy Weight- Analytic Hierarchy Process) Method. Finally, driving behavior scores of 100 drivers were computed by using the data collected from a 6-month field experiment. The results of three statistics analysis showed that the driving behavior score model could effectively reflect the risk level of driver's safe driving and provide a basis for the individual discount or surcharge that insurers offer to their policyholders.
