Seattle Car Crash Rate: Important Local Statistics

Allstate insurance tracks the worst drivers in the nation as they call it.  This year’s rankings have been released.  In the 200 city survey, Seattle ranked at 184^th which means only 16 other cities in the nation scored worse than Seattle.  On average, Seattle drivers have a collision every 6.9 years.  Bellevue was also high on the list at 174^th and Tacoma came in at 164^th.

With a collision on average of every seven years it’s a great reminder to ensure that you have enough insurance to protect you from liability as well as from someone else’s negligence.  Often times clients don’t have enough underinsured or uninsured motorist protection and are left with unpaid bills and/or unrepaired cars because they are hit by someone without insurance.
