Allstate has issued a report finding that, when factoring population density together with the frequency of auto property damage claims, the city with the safest drivers is Madison, Wisconsin.
“As people look forward to Labor Day trips, hurry to get children to class on time, and take care of many other needs, we urge drivers to always exercise caution,” said Glenn Shapiro, Allstate's chief claims officer. “Americans are spending more time behind the wheel, leading to more collisions, rising roadway costs, and potentially deadly outcomes.”
According to Allstate, the 10 safest-driving cities, when factoring auto property damage claims with population density, are:
| 1. Madison, Wis. |
| 2. Brownsville, Texas |
| 3. Boise, Idaho |
| 4. New York, N.Y. |
| 5. Milwaukee, Wis. |
| 6. Wichita, Kansas |
| 7. Hialeah, Fla. |
| 8. McAllen, Texas |
| 9. Olathe, Kan. |
| 10. Lincoln, Neb. |
