If you’ve ever felt like you’re the only good driver on the road some days, you’re not alone—in fact, surveys show that most people believe they are better, more reliable drivers than the other people on the road at any given time.
The average person is involved in a car collision just once every 17 years, but with over 300 million people in the US, that rate can add up pretty quickly.
If you’ve ever been involved in a car collision, you know that it can be tough to sort out just who’s to blame. And even if you may feel like the best driver on the road, there’s a good chance that you’re not.
When it comes to deciphering who is the best driver, there are some candidates who you know have a higher collision rate than others—for instance, teenagers, due largely to inexperience, have a much higher accident rate than someone in their 30s or 40s.
So who is the best driver?
Statistically, the answer may be a big surprise to some.
The following infographic examines, from a statistical standpoint, who the best driver on the road is. Read on to see whether or not you fit the description!
