Many states in the southern U.S. have the worst records for teenage drivers, according to a study by iSharing.
States like Kentucky, Texas, Arkansas, Delaware and Mississippi rank worst in the country for things like fatality rates, alcohol risks and road quality.
“Teen driver safety is influenced by a complex mix of factors that go beyond just age or inexperience,” said a spokesperson for iSharing. “Road quality, enforcement of alcohol laws, and support through additional education and technology all play critical roles. With the availability of family location sharing apps and driving reports, it is possible to lower the risk for young drivers and build a safety net for family members who use cars.”
