The Verdict is In- Miami Has Country’s Worst Drivers

Last week we looked at some of the world’s worst places to drive when looking at traffic and impossible roads. To our surprise, Miami was not listed in the top of those statistics, but unfortunately, it placed first in the worst list of all- the city with the worst drivers. Here are the country’s top five cities with the worst drivers, counting down:

No. 5: Baltimore. Baltimoreans just can’t keep from running into each other. They were outside the top 10 in fatalities, DWI deaths, and pedestrian strikes, but their rate of collision couldn’t keep them out of the top five overall.

No. 4: Tampa, Fla. Tampa doesn’t do any single thing terribly, but it is consistently poor: 18th worst in years between accidents, fifth in traffic fatalities, tied for 11th in DWI fatalities, and 10th in pedestrian strikes. If the city had managed to get outside the bottom half in any individual category, Tampa residents might have avoided this distinction.

No. 3: Hialeah. The drivers of Hialeah get into a middling number of accidents, ranking 11th among the 39 candidates. But when they hit someone, they really mean it. The city finished third for fatalities. They also have a terrifying tendency to hit pedestrians.

No. 2: Philadelphia. Drivers in the city of brotherly love enjoy a good love tap behind the wheel. Second-places finishes in collisions and pedestrian strikes overwhelm their semi-respectable 16th-place ranking in DWI deaths.

No. 1: Miami. First in automotive fatalities, first in pedestrian strikes, and first in the obscenity-laced tirades of their fellow drivers.
