Does Your Holiday Travel Include a Visit to the City With the Safest Drivers?

If you plan to visit Sioux Falls, S.D it does. This is according to an article published by www.businesswire.com. The article says that "Allstate actuaries have conducted an in-depth analysis of company claim data to determine the likelihood drivers in America’s 200 largest cities will experience a vehicle collision compared to the national average. Residents in Sioux Falls, S.D., continued to top the chart as the safest drivers in the U.S., according to the fourth annual “Allstate America’s Best Drivers Report™.” The average driver in Sioux Falls experiences an auto collision every 14.6 years. Compared to the national likelihood of a collision every 10 years – Sioux Falls motorists are 31.6 percent less likely to have an accident than the national average."

Being the skeptic I am, I was thinking about how the data was gathered. Did you notice that they determined this data from the claims that were filed? So, maybe people in Sioux Falls tend to file more claims? Do you think that would make enough of a difference to change the results?

Well, hopefully wherever you travel for your holiday you will be an aware and defensive driver. But, just in case, make sure you know what to do after a car accident.
