Summary
Boston’s drivers are crashing more often than anywhere else in the U.S., with a shocking 189% higher accident rate than the national average—and they’re doing it every 3.7 years. The Allstate report, based on two years of insurance claims and Drivewise app data, also found Bostonians lead the nation in distracted driving. Meanwhile, Brownsville, Texas, stands in stark contrast, with drivers going nearly 15 years between collisions. Safety experts say simple habits like staying focused and slowing down can make a huge difference.
