Does everyone in Florida think they have the worst, most reckless drivers on the road? Which city actually takes the title for having the worst drivers?
According to a recent study from Real Estate Witch, which publishes online guides for buying and selling homes in different places, Florida has four of the top 10 cities in the U.S. with the worst drivers.
Here’s which Florida city ranked in first place on Real Estate Witch’s “worst drivers” list and three other Florida cities that placed in the top 10.
What U.S. city has the worst drivers?
“Long-suffering Americans like to gripe that their city has the worst drivers, but we hate to ‘brake’ it to you, not all of them actually do,” the study says.
“To fuel the debate about which cities have the worst drivers, we analyzed the 50 most-populous U.S. metros based on the following weighted metrics:”
4x: Average annual traffic fatalities per 100,000 residents
3x: Average annual alcohol-related traffic fatalities per 100,000 residents
2x: Bicyclist fatalities by motorists per 100,000 residents
2x: Percentage of uninsured drivers in the state
1x: Average annual vehicle insurance premiums in the state
1x: Days of precipitation per year
1x: Allstate’s best drivers rank
1x: Google Trends for “DUI,” “drunk driving,” “speeding,” “traffic ticket,” and “car accident”
1x: Number of dangerous roads
According to these metrics, Jacksonville is the city with the worst drivers in the U.S. and Tampa is in second place overall.
Orlando and Miami also rank in the top 10, in fifth and seventh place, respectively.
Here’s the list of the top 10 cities in the U.S. with the worst drivers, according to Real Estate Witch:
Jacksonville, Florida
Tampa, Florida
Memphis, Tennessee
