More an issue of zip code than what people are driving.

Hmm. My zip code I would assume to have high rates- as I’m off Branch Ave.

I also have a perfectly clear driving record. Zero tickets ever. Zero wrecks with 25 years on the road

Woah how have you avoided wrecks here for 25 years?! I had someone total my first car when they blew a red light and the second car was nearly destroyed when someone plowed into me at a yield. Other friends have had drivers get arrested for DUIs or smash into a row or parked cars at full speed.

Like... seriously, how?! Did you just move here and do all the other years in a low risk state?

Most of the time in Boston. Defensive driving with the assumption people are trying to kill me. Motorcycling for about half that time with zero wrecks or drops either. Even at lights I’m checking my assumptions about other cars movement
