1. A telematics server for determining driver efficiency, the telematics server comprising:
a device interface configured to receive accelerometer data from a telematics device located in a vehicle driven by a driver, wherein the accelerometer data defines a pattern of acceleration of the vehicle over a time period; and
a driver efficiency analyzer configured to (i) determine a driver efficiency score of the driver based on the accelerometer data, wherein the driver efficiency score is indicative of an average absolute acceleration of the vehicle over the time period, (ii) compare the driver efficiency score to a reference efficiency score, and (iii) generate a notification in response to a determination that the driver efficiency score satisfies a relationship to the reference efficiency score,
wherein the device interface is further configured to transmit the notification.
