Think you’re an excellent driver? If you’re an American, you probably do. According to a new survey by Allstate, 64 percent of American motorists rate their driving skills, knowledge, and safe-driving habits either “excellent” or “very good.”
They’re a lot less charitable when assessing other drivers. Only 29 percent ranked their close friends either “excellent” or “very good” behind the wheel. Asked about other people their own age, just 22 percent gave that group a favorable rating.
Drivers from surrounding states fared even worse, according to the phone survey of 1,000 adults (848 of whom drove at least occasionally). Only 8 percent of respondents rated those non-local folks near the top, while 53 percent appraised their driving skills as merely “average,” if not “poor.”
