Motability to give black box monitors to under 30s

From 13 April, Motability customers who start a new lease, including drivers under 30, will get weekly traffic light scores via a black box, like those used for younger drivers to get cheaper insurance.

If you don't drive smoothly you could have your car taken away.

Northern Ireland has been trialling the Drive Smart technology since last year and one recipient, Eva, 21, says her scores are bad - red and amber - because the gadget doesn't understand that her hand controls create a different driving experience.

Actor Keron Day, 25, will be one of the first to have a box fitted when the new scheme goes UK-wide. He's campaigning to change the rules before his new wheelchair accessible van arrives because he dislikes the fact that insurance companies offer boxes to under 24s yet, because he's disabled, he will have one until he's 30.

A number of other changes have been drip-fed by Motability recently. They include lowering the mileage cap from 20,000 per year to 10,000 and charging 25p per extra mile, up from 5p per mile.

Nigel Fletcher CEO of the Motability Foundation tells us why.

Her book Unapologetic Love Story is out on World Autism Day, 2 April.
