Honorable mention to Phoenix. Their drivers are unbelievably bad.

We do have some bad drivers. But I think the cause of so many of the accidents are because of people using the interstate and going only 40-45 mph with many of them using the left lane. I guess some people either don't care or don't realize that lane is for passing. I actually saw a wreck 2 weeks ago because the person in front of me was going 45ish in the left land causing others to try and pass them in the center lane and they clipped someone. The fault in that accident was because of the dumbass going so slow, in the left lane. Hell if your not going to go at least 60MPH you should not get on the interstate. Use surface streets.

Go to Atlanta. I have yet to see worse drivers than that town.



Hate to hear this. I always found the drivers in ATL pretty legit. Been a while since I lived there though.

Baton Rouge is loaded with culcha and female drivers that go slow and can’t drive for shite.

I don’t have a problem with the plant baws going 90 because they can usually drive. Driving fast isn’t bad if you’re a good driver. Someone texting or smoking a blunt going 45 on I-10 is a problem.

Houston drivers are aggressive but logical. Alabama drivers are aggressive and stupid. Trust me, they're worse.

Houston is also home to many Asians who hamper traffic with their general slowness and lack of spatial awareness.

I'm assuming your round trip didn't include Los Angeles.

This is so true

It's like the Bermuda triangle for vehicles. I've lived here for 7 years and I'm amazed at the number of car fires I hear about on the radio for what seems damn near every day.

Another thing I notice about Baton Rouge drivers, is that they put their breaks on at random for no reason. Driving behind someone on the interstate, no cars in front of them, and they just use their breaks to slow down below the speed limit.

I don’t know but Baton Rouge is like the perfect storm of Uber Shitty road planning in the past that was just lacking in forward planning mixed with really bad drivers.


But Shreveport drivers have got to take the cake. I swear the number of times some stupid MFer has pulled straight out in front of my at an intersection or the number of wrecks I’ve seen at a 35 mph red light intersection are incredible.

I swear these people could cause a 5 car pile up while in stand still traffic.

Dude was probably weaving in and out of traffic due to the Texas drivers blocking the left passing lane. Happens EVERY DAMN day on I-10.
