Worst drivers

I knew they couldn't drive in GA....

GMAC Insurance has released the results of its National Drivers Test for 2009. The test, which measures basic knowledge of driving laws, was given to more than 5,000 drivers from all 50 states and the District of Columbia -- and New Yorkers finished last. Last year's loser, New Jersey, improved its score just enough to leap over New York. Hawaii, California and Georgia rounded out the bottom five.

Idaho and Wisconsin drivers tied for the highest average score, with an 80.6.

So South Carolina was 40th. Want to bet if they counted our illegal aliens driving without a license we would be number 50?? Those ratings are fixed anyway. How hard is it to learn the rules in Idaho or Wisconson?? Don't hit the potatos or don't hit the cheese and you know it all.

NJ is right where it belongs. The drivers here suck big time. It's like I'm driving an invisible car most days, people just pull out, turn, stop and run you off the road like you are not there.

No, I think CA would beat you there. Of all the accidents in our rural neighborhood, most (some years ALL) are undocumented, unlicensed, uninsured.

100% (duh!) don't think I feel very safe knowing what some of the scores were on this test, but maybe that shouldn't surprise me.

I knew it, I was right I am a smarter driver than everyone else on the road! I scored higher than most of the country, I always tell my wife that but she doesn't seem to believe me, lol

95% for me and the question I got wrong I changed my answer on because it was one of the badly worded ones.
