Young drivers have a new way to get a lower State Farm Insurance Quote. State Farm introduced its second iPhone application last month and 9,000 people have already downloaded it. This information is from “New State Farm app aimed at young drivers” by Ryan Denham of Pantagraph. The application is called Steer Clear Mobile and is geared towards drivers under age 25. They download videos, trip logs, and self-assessments to their iPhone or iTouch and go through this safe driving program. The Steer Clear discount program can save young drivers up to 15% off of their car insurance.
State Farm’s mobile team wanted to take advantage of a media form that young drivers use and try to make them all safer. Since they may not tell their parents or teachers that they have driving questions, the hope is that they’ll learn how to drive safer and buy State Farm car insurance because of the discount. This program was previously available, but was done either through an agent or by downloading and printing out the forms. The program takes a few weeks to complete and must be reviewed by an agent for verification. Some added benefits to iPhone application users are a section on driving tips based on weather and places to find an agent.
