Let’s face it, we’ve all felt the effects of inflation. The cost of repairing a vehicle has risen significantly in recent years, and, consequently, auto insurance rates continue to rise.
Virginia Farm Bureau Mutual Insurance Co. is committed to providing the best care and service to its customers, while also actively working to improve road safety. That’s why the company offers Drive2Save, a program that rewards safe driving. By taking three simple steps, you can lower your auto insurance premiums: Download, Drive, Save.
Step 1: Download – Once your agent enrolls you in the Drive2Save program, you can download the app on your smartphone. Setting up the app will only take a few moments, and then you’ll be ready to drive.
Step 2: Drive – Take a drive within the first 30 days of downloading the app. The app will monitor your driving habits and calculate your driving score after a couple of trips.
Step 3: Save – When you first sign up for Drive2Save, you will receive up to 10% discount.* Based on your driving score, you could qualify for savings at policy renewal of up to 30%.**

How do I enroll in Drive2Save?
Existing policyholders can contact their local office to enroll at renewal. New policyholders can start by getting an online auto quote. Your online quote will not include the discounted premium, so contact your local agent to learn more.
Drivers must take at least one trip using the Routely app within the first 30 days of enrollment, or the discount will be removed retroactively.
Do all drivers on my policy need to enroll in the program?
No, each driver on the policy can choose to be enrolled or not enrolled in the program. However, your savings can increase if more drivers are enrolled in Drive2Save. Additional drivers can be added at renewal. Contact your agent or local office to do so.
How do I download/set up the Routely app?
The Routely app can be downloaded and installed just like any other mobile app. Routely can be downloaded for iOS or Android devices.
How is my driving score calculated?
Arity is the company that supports the Routely app. Your driving score is based on factors like distracted driving, high speed, sudden braking and time of day. Visit Arity's Routely FAQs page to learn more.
What data/information is collected, and who is it shared with?
Routely does not monitor private communications like phone conversations or written messages. Routely captures data such as trip start and end time, miles, acceleration, braking behavior, cornering, speed, and indications of phone use such as incoming and outgoing call status during a trip. You can view Arity's Privacy Policy for more information on their data collection.
