I for one will be leaving if they introduce drive smart. Im not having my driving constantly monitored, like I’m some kind of misbehaving child who can’t be trusted. Its bad enough that the car I drive already rates my driving after every journey. Although I tend to get in the 80s to 90s for safety most of the time.
As for the CEO’s and staff’s pay and perks, to me it demonstrates the corrupt society we live in. In my opinion its obscene that they pay those kind of sums when their major income is from disabled customers benefits, especially when cutbacks are being forced upon those customers, that will severely effect many of their lives.
But it doesn’t suprise me when I read that for many of the major charities, 90-98% of the donations they receive go to directors pay.
I would send a reply to speak my mind, but I feel what’s the point. All I would get back is the usual well rehearsed trite. I may as well just be talking to a machine.
I’ve been looking and I could get a decent Mondeo or Volvo or something similar for a couple of grand and probably be better off financially. Yes I may have the stress of it potentially breaking down, but I’d rather have the stress of that then the stress of constantly having to worry about driving pefectly, with the knowledge that any tiny mistake could result in my losing the car.
