Everyone else should bear that in mind \u2013 your insurance may well rise, but that\u2019s the only option unless you want to drive illegally! When you look at it on a monthly basis, \u00a3450 is less than \u00a340, so it isn\u2019t <strong>that<\/strong> bad. And it beats getting points, possibly a ban, and a subsequent huge insurance increase as a result of that.<\/p>\n<p>In Matthew\u2019s case, the black box policy premium will probably come down again in three months times once he starts accruing good driving data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well done Matthew, who passed first time today with just two driver faults.
