DC drivers most accident-prone
Posted by: Will Sommer in News, Vox Populi, tags: Drivers, TrafficDC drivers average one accident every 5.4 years, making them the nation’s most dangerous, according to Allstate. 5.4 seems like a long time for some drivers, so I guess they’re not counting pulling too far into a parking space, bumping the car facing you, and driving to another space.
AAA says we’re getting in wrecks because of gridlock. DC drivers spend 60 hours in a traffic a year, which also doesn’t seem like that much.
Apparently it is, though, and we need to shape up. I was hoping we could start anew after this report, maybe get our shit together, but Bob Novak put the kibosh on that.
