A new survey released Thursday by U.S. News Media Group and Allstate Insurance Company has found that Washington D.C. is the best state or district for teen drivers to live in.
The survey reached its results after analyzing state driving laws, road conditions, and government statistics on teen driver safety. Following Washington D.C. was California, Colorado, Maryland, and Illinois:
- District of Columbia
- California
- Colorado
- Maryland
- Illinois
- New Jersey
- Oregon
- Minnesota
- Utah
- Washington
The survey also offered some conflicting information in regard to teen drivers, as 82 percent of them claimed to use cell phones while driving and 49 percent admitted to being extremely distracted by texting and instant messaging while behind the wheel, 65 percent also classified themselves as good drivers who pay attention.
Even families who fully trust their teenagers behind the wheel of a car must acknowledge that they too are prone to mistakes as they get more experience behind the wheel. Because of that, they should ensure their auto insurance coverage protects their vehicles properly against all types of damages, both major and minor.
