If it is a lifelong dream to drive cars and play computer games, the look no further, because America has found the answer.

A US car insurance company is offering discounts to driver’s car insurance premiums who are over 50. This discount is made possible because they will be tested on a brain training computer, and those who score high marks in the game will receive a discount.

There are conditions to the terms though, such as the driver needs to live in Pennsylvania and be over 50. A spokesperson from the U.S Insurer Allstate commented: "If using the software is successful in reducing accident rates among customers 50 years and older, Allstate hopes to begin offering discounts to drivers who use the computer-based exercises to help improve their mental sharpness."

Allstate has claimed that the computer game will work because they claim it will “reverse age related cognitive decline”. Allstate believes that the technology can improve driving skills to the extent where stopping distances by an average of “22 feet when travelling at 55 miles an hour.”

The computer game has been developed by Posit Science which regards itself to be: “The leading provider of clinically validated brain fitness products and services.”

This invention could lead to cheap car insurance and can make purchasing it more fun.
