Motorists who install video-recording devices in their vehicles could get discounts on their motor insurance premiums.

This possible incentive is being studied by a working group formed by the Traffic Police and the General Insurance Association (GIA).

Both see the move as a way to encourage better behaviour on the road, Traffic Police Commander Cheang Keng Keong told The Straits Times this week.

Improving driver behaviour, he said, was key to lowering accident rates.

Under consideration:

Insurance premium discounts for installing in-vehicle camera
Shortening demerit-free period for motorists to get insurance rebates

Measures the Traffic Police plan to implement:

Make heavy vehicles found speeding undergo inspections more often
Beef up enforcement - more summonses issued, more officers to be put on patrol, more digital cameras to be installed
