published its annual report of the cities with the best drivers, which can be
seen here. The report, based on Allstate claims data, ranks
America’s 200 largest cities in terms of car collision frequency to identify
which cities have the safest drivers. Sioux Falls South Dakota was ranked the
number 1 safest city for drivers. Unfortunately, Chicago ranked number 152 out
of 200. The report noted that drivers in Chicago are 25.9% more likely to
be involved in a car accidents compared to other cities and drivers average 7.9
years in between vehicle collisions.

2. Know what is going on in the city during the time you
are driving;
3. Stay Alert (for pedestrians, emergency vehicles,
