Introduction

Once your setup and permissions are stable, the next step is strategy. Advanced LETSTOP users do more than drive carefully. They plan their trips, manage their focus, and use the app to turn everyday routes into consistent progress. This guide breaks that into three stages: plan, pace, and perform.

Plan: Set Up Drives That Count

Not every movement deserves the same attention. Short hops or parking lot maneuvers are less valuable than full trips. Strategic planning helps you create drives that qualify for scoring and credits more often.

You do not need long road trips. Many everyday commutes are already long enough to count. The goal is to make them as clean and distraction free as possible.

Plan: Prepare Mentally and Technically

Advanced drivers treat each trip as a short focused session. A few seconds of preparation at the start can significantly increase both score and credits.

With this, the first minutes of your trip, which often contain the most touches, become much cleaner.

Pace: Manage Your Focus During the Trip

Focus is not all or nothing. It rises and falls during traffic, lights, and long straight segments. Recognizing your focus patterns helps you avoid specific high risk moments.

Use your LETSTOP trip map after each drive to identify your own pattern. Then set small rules to counter it, such as Zero touches at red lights or Phone stays locked until parked.

Pace: Balance Safety and Productivity

You do not need to sacrifice productivity to drive safely. Instead, move tasks to the right time.

This keeps your mind calmer on the road and protects your LETSTOP score from sudden drops caused by a single distracted moment.

Perform: Turn Strong Drives Into Higher Rewards

As your strategy becomes stable, your drive scores will improve, and that directly affects your credits and progress.

This creates a loop. Strategic driving leads to better scores, which leads to more credits, which strengthens your earning power for future drives.

Perform: Use Levels and XP to Guide Progress

Levels and XP are more than decorative. They are signals of your long term strategy.

As your level rises, each safe trip has a bigger impact on your overall progress.

Review, Adjust, Repeat

Advanced strategy is not about being perfect. It is about repeating a simple cycle: review your trip insights, adjust one behavior, and then repeat that improvement on the next similar route. LETSTOP provides the data. You decide how to act on it.
