Progressive will offer up to 30% discount for low risk drivers

I’ll take any incentive to discourage aggressive driving and over use of the automobile. The basic deal is they install a device in your car and they monitor your driving for six months. Depending on how you score will determine your discount, with no penalties for scoring badly.
I think its kinda sad/funny the old program flopped because people knew they were being monitored to get a safe driving discount and still drove like jerks and got penalized for it. Are we really that clueless what constitutes safe driving / low risk driving behavior?
