The Aloha State probably would like to say goodbye to a new ranking of drivers’
behavior.

Hawaii sits atop our 2024 list of the worst states for driving behavior.
According to a survey of 5,000 Americans with a driver’s license (100
respondents in each state), motorists in Hawaii rank first for:

 * Changing lanes or turning without signaling
 * Speeding 20 mph or more over the limit
 * Running a red light

Sure, we understand that Hawaiians may be in a rush to head to the beach,
prompting those three traffic violations. But aside from the behaviors we’ve
already mentioned, Hawaii motorists rank highly for bad behavior such as driving
under the influence of alcohol or drugs, speeding 10 to 19 mph over the limit
and texting while driving.

Despite being one of the smallest states in terms of land area, Hawaii covers a
lot of territory in the world of bad driving.

Key Takeaways

 * Survey respondents in Hawaii have the worst driving habits, followed by those
   in Oregon and New Mexico.
 * According to the survey, speeding (less than 10 mph over the speed limit) is
   America’s worst driving habit, with 39% of survey respondents with a driver’s
   license admitting to doing so in the past month. A further 14% of respondents
   admitted to speeding between 10 and 19 mph in the past month.
 * 29% of respondents admitted to eating while driving in the past month, the
   second worst habit. The third worst habit is speeding up to a yellow light.
 * 94% of respondents considered themselves to be good drivers (96% of men, 94%
   of women).
 * 50% of respondents feel driving behavior has worsened since the Covid-19
   pandemic, while only 14% feel it’s gotten better, according to our recent
   survey of 5,000 drivers across all 50 states.



 


AMERICANS’ WORST DRIVING HABITS



According to the survey:

 * Speeding (less than 10 mph over the speed limit) is the worst driving
   behavior.
 * Eating while driving is next, followed by speeding up to a yellow light.
 * 12% of respondents admitted to texting while driving in the past month.
 * Nearly 1 in 10 of respondents admitted honking, genturing or cursing at a
   fellow driver in the past month.
 * Only 1% of respondents said they’ve driven under the influence of alcohol or
   drugs.


STATES WITH THE WORST DRIVING BEHAVIOR



According to the survey:

 * Respondents in Hawaii have the worst driving habits, followed by those in
   Oregon and New Mexico.
 * Respondents in Hawaii also admit to being the worst drivers. Just 89% of
   respondents in Hawaii consider themselves to be good drivers, the lowest
   percentage nationwide.
 * Drivers in Virginia believe they’re the best drivers, with 99% of respondents
   in the state claiming they’re good drivers. Despite this, Virginia is the
   14th worst state for driving behaviors, according to our analysis.
 * Tennessee drivers exhibit the best driving behaviors, according to the survey
   data from drivers who live in the state.


THE 10 WORST STATES FOR DRIVING BEHAVIOR

1. HAWAII

Hawaii score: 100 out of 100

Hawaii might be the 50th state to have joined the United States, but it’s the
first state for the worst driving behavior, according to our analysis.

Perhaps drivers in the Aloha State are distracted by the sheer beauty of the
islands. Or maybe they’re frustrated by traffic jams. TomTom, a provider of
traffic data, ranked the Honolulu metro area second in the U.S. for the longest
average amount of time spent traveling six miles in 2023.

Regardless of the reasons, survey respondents in Hawaii show up at the top of
three bad-driving categories. According to the survey and compared to the other
49 states, it’s the worst state for:

 * Changing lanes or turning without signaling (20%)
 * Speeding 20 mph or more over the limit (13%)
 * Running a red light (8%), tied with Texas and Oregon

To make matters worse, nearly half (47%) of respondents in Hawaii admitted
speeding—less than 10 mph over the limit—in the past month.

The behind-the-wheel dangers don’t stop there, though. The survey reveals that
drivers in Hawaii also rank:

 * No. 2 for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs (tied with New
   Mexico, Minnesota, Utah and Alabama).
 * No. 3 for speeding (10 to 19 mph over the limit).
 * No. 4 for texting while driving (tied with Missouri and Oklahoma).
 * No. 4 for speeding to get through a yellow light (tied with Wyoming, Vermont,
   West Virginia and Minnesota).
 * No. 4 for angrily honking at another driver (tied with South Carolina).
 * No. 6 for refusing to yield to another driver (tied with Connecticut,
   Wisconsin and Alabama).
 * No. 7 for cutting off another driver (tied with South Carolina and New York).

If these statistics are any indication, maybe drivers in Hawaii could benefit
from brushing up on their driving skills instead of riding the waves.

2. OREGON

Oregon score: 99.48 out of 100

Boasting more than 6,000 lakes, over 112,000 miles of rivers and streams, and 13
national parks, Oregon ranks among the most beautiful states in the country.

Yet things can get pretty ugly on the Beaver State’s roadways. Our data shows
Oregon is the second worst state for bad driving. According to the survey and
compared to the other 49 states, Oregon’s drivers rank worst for:

 * Running a red light (8%)
 * Refusing to yield another driver (5%)
 * Speeding in a school zone (4%)

It doesn’t help matters that the state’s largest city, Portland, sits at No. 10
on Forbes Advisor’s ranking of the worst U.S. cities to drive in. Dragging down
Portland’s standing: virtual buckets of precipitation and sluggish rush-hour
traffic.

Given that ranking, it shouldn’t be a surprise that Oregon ranks second for
motorists causing car accidents, tied with Massachusetts, New Jersey and
Alabama. According to the survey, 2% of respondents in Oregon fessed up to
causing an accident in the past month.

Another black mark for Oregon motorists: 45% of respondents in Oregon say
they’ve speeded (less than 10 mph over the speed limit) in the past month.

3. NEW MEXICO

New Mexico score: 94.94 out of 100

With more than 2.1 million residents spread across 121,280 square miles, New
Mexico is blessed by lots of scenic wide-open spaces. Those spaces make the
state’s roughly 30,000 miles of interstate, U.S. and state highways awfully
tempting for drivers who feel the need for speed.

It’s no wonder, then, that New Mexico ranks as the worst state for speeding 10
to 19 mph over the limit. In our survey, nearly one-fourth (22%) of respondents
in New Mexico admitted they’d traveled that fast in the past month, tied with
New Hampshire.

Overall, New Mexico holds the No. 3 spot among the states with the worst driving
behavior. The survey revealed two troublesome behind-the-wheel activities: New
Mexico ranks second (tied with Alabama, Minnesota and Hawaii) for driving under
the influence of alcohol or drugs (3%) and passing in a no-passing zone (2%),
tied with New Jersey and Alabama.

This behavior likely contributes to the state’s above-average rate for traffic
deaths.

From 2019 through 2023, 2,174 people died on New Mexico highways, an average of
435 deaths per year. The traffic death rate of 1.46 fatalities per 100 million
vehicle miles of travel exceeds the national average (1.26).

4. WYOMING

Wyoming score: 89.88 out of 100

What Wyoming lacks in population, it makes up for in size.

The ninth largest state by area, Wyoming covers more than 97,000 square miles.
Yet it’s home to only about 577,000 people, making it the smallest state in
terms of population.

Unfortunately, Wyoming comes up big in three bad-driving categories. According
to the survey and compared to the other 49 states, it ranks first for:

 * Eating while driving (45%)
 * Texting while driving (24%)
 * Putting on makeup/getting ready while driving (6%)

Overall, the Cowboy State ranks fourth for poor driving. The survey reveals
Wyoming places in the top 10 for:

 * Changing lanes or turning without signaling (3rd)
 * Run a red light (4th), tied with Connecticut, Michigan, Mississippi, New
   Hampshire and North Dakota.
 * Tailgating (9th), tied with Kentucky, West Virginia and Washington

These behaviors—along with the small-town makeup of its population—might help
explain Wyoming’s status in 2022 as the state with the highest share of traffic
deaths (85%) on rural vs. urban roads.

5. ALASKA

Alaska score: 89.70 out of 100

Encompassing more than 570,000 square miles, Alaska stands tall as the largest
state based on land area. Yet because of its small and scattered population,
fewer than 17,700 miles of public roads snake through the 49th state.
Nonetheless, these roads can be treacherous.

According to the survey, Alaska nails down spots in the top 10 for seven
bad-driving behaviors:

 * Driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs (1st)
 * Passing in a no-passing zone (1st)
 * Eating while driving (2nd)
 * Putting on makeup/getting ready while driving (5th), tied with Alabama,
   Louisiana, New Jersey, New Mexico and Oregon
 * Causing a car accident (6th), tied with more than a dozen other states
 * Speeding 20 mph or more over the limit (9th), tied with Massachusetts, New
   Mexico, Oklahoma and West Virginia
 * Refusing to yield to another driver (10th), tied with eight other states

Overall, Alaska ranks fifth for bad driving behaviors. The state’s weather
likely plays a big role in this distinction: In the winter, which generally
stretches from October to March, temperatures linger below zero and snow
blankets the landscape.

6. NORTH DAKOTA

North Dakota score: 89.01 out of 100

Parents, teachers and principals in North Dakota need to keep an especially
close eye on students as they’re coming to and leaving school. Why? Because the
survey revealed that North Dakota ties as the worst state for speeding in a
school zone, with 4% of respondents in the state admitting they’ve engaged in
this behavior.

School zones aren’t the only places where North Dakota drivers might be
misbehaving, however. According to the survey, the Roughrider State also ranks
in the top 10 for:

 * Tailgating (2nd), tied with Illinois and New Hampshire
 * Running a red light (4th), tied with Connecticut, Michigan, Mississippi, New
   Hampshire and Washington
 * Causing a car accident (6th), tied with more than a dozen other states
 * Driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs (7th), tied with 11
   other states
 * Eating while driving (8th), tied with Minnesota and Oregon
 * Passing in a no-passing zone (8th), tied with more than a dozen other states

North Dakota ranks sixth overall for poor driving behaviors. The state’s harsh
winter weather is almost certainly a contributing factor, as this season can be
particularly cold and snowy—leading to dangerously slick roads.

7. CONNECTICUT

Connecticut score: 88.39 out of 100

The conduct of some Connecticut motorists suggests they may need a refresher on
driving etiquette.

The Constitution State ranks among the top 10 in nine bad-driving categories.
Most notably, the survey shows it ties as the worst state for speeding in a
school zone, with 4% of respondents self-reporting they’ve done this.

But the bad-driving road doesn’t end there. According to the survey and compared
to the other 49 states, the eight other categories where Connecticut respondents
fare poorly are:

 * Angrily honking at another driver (2nd), tied with New York
 * Speeding 20 mph or more over the limit (3rd), tied with Arkansas and New
   Jersey
 * Cutting someone off (3rd), tied with Nebraska, New Hampshire and Nevada
 * Speeding 10 to 19 mph over the limit (4th)
 * Running a red light (4th), tied with six other states
 * Refusing to yield to another driver (6th), tied with Alabama, Hawaii and
   Wisconsin
 * Causing a car accident: (6th), tied with more than a dozen other states
 * Speeding less than 10 mph over the limit (7th)

For those Connecticut drivers worried about traffic safety, a 2024 report might
offer some relief: Traffic stops across the state are on the rise again after a
decline during the 2000-21 peak of the Covid-19 pandemic. But they haven’t
returned to pre-pandemic levels.

8. VERMONT

Vermont score: 88.05 out of 100

Hiking, snow skiing and snowmobiling are common pastimes in Vermont. But another
transportation-related activity appears to be popular too: bad driving.

Overall, Vermont holds the No. 8 spot for poor driving behavior among the
states. In fact, it appears in the top 10 for eight bad-driving categories. The
survey revealed that Vermont’s worst ranking comes in the category of speeding
in a school zone, tying for first place.

According to the survey and compared to the other 49 states, other rankings that
add to Vermont’s record of bad driving are:

 * Speeding less than 10 mph over the speed limit (2nd)
 * Speeding up to catch a yellow light (4th), tied with Hawaii, West Virginia
   and Wyoming
 * Eating while driving (5th), tied with Kansas and Maine
 * Tailgating (5th), tied with Arkansas, New Jersey and New Mexico
 * Causing a car accident (6th), tied with more than a dozen other states
 * Speeding 10 to 19 mph over the speed limit (8th), tied with Wisconsin
 * Passing in a no-passing zone (8th), tied with more than one dozen other
   states

As you might expect in a state with a small population (around 643,000), 84% of
Vermont’s traffic deaths happened in rural areas in 2022. The state’s three high
rankings for speeding likely contribute to this death toll.

9. KANSAS

Kansas score: 81.33 out of 100

It seems that more Kansas drivers should keep their eyes on the road. The survey
shows that the Sunflower State claims the No. 2 spot among the states for
texting while driving. In our survey, nearly one-fourth (22%) of Kansas
respondents admitted texting while driving.

Not only is texting while driving unsafe, but it’s against the law in Kansas.

It’s a safe bet that texting while driving isn’t the only prohibited behavior
that Kansas motorists are engaging in, given that Kansas appears at No. 9 on our
list of the states with the worst drivers. For example, it ties as the worst
state for speeding in a school zone.

According to the survey and compared to the other 49 states, Kansas also ranks
in the top 10 in these bad-driving categories:

 * Changing lanes or turning without signaling (4th)
 * Speeding less than 10 mph over the limit (5th), tied with Virginia
 * Eating while driving (5th), tied with Maine and Vermont
 * Angrily honking at another driver (6th), tied with Illinois, Maine, Minnesota
   and New Jersey
 * Speeding up to catch a yellow light (9th)

10. WEST VIRGINIA

West Virginia score: 80.89 out of 100

West Virginia’s designation as the Mountain State gives drivers a mountain of
reasons to exercise caution behind the wheel. After all, the state’s mountainous
terrain makes navigating the roads a bit trickier. Unfortunately, some West
Virginia drivers fail to embrace certain rules of the rocky roads.

West Virginia ranks 10th overall for driving poor behavior. The worst behavior:
18% of respondents admitted to texting while driving, putting it in third place
among the states in this category. That’s despite the fact that texting while
driving is illegal in West Virginia.

Texting while driving isn’t the only troubling activity on West Virginia’s
roads, however. According to the survey and compared to the other 49 states, it
ranks:

 * Fourth for speeding up to catch a yellow light, tied with Minnesota, Hawaii,
   Vermont and Wyoming
 * Eighth for passing in a no-passing zone, tied with more than a dozen other
   states
 * Ninth for speeding 20 mph or more over the limit, tied with Alaska, Oklahoma,
   Massachusetts and New Mexico
 * 10th for being involved in a car accident that wasn’t the driver’s fault,
   tied with more than a dozen other states


THE STATES WITH THE BEST DRIVING BEHAVIOR

The survey revealed:

 * Tennessee ranks as the best state overall for the best driving behavior.
 * Tennessee ranks as the best state for speeding (less than 10 mph over the
   limit) and (20 mph or more over the limit).
 * Ohio ranks as the next best state for driving behavior, followed by
   Pennsylvania and Florida.
 * Pennsylvania ranks or ties as the best state for the following driving
   behaviors: putting on makeup/getting ready while driving, speeding in a
   school zone, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, causing a car
   accident, passing in a no-passing zone.


EACH STATE’S WORST DRIVING BEHAVIORS



According to the survey:

 * The majority of states have the same top 3: Speed (less than 10 mph over the
   speed limit), eating while driving and speeding up to yellow light.
 * Oklahoma is the only state where texting and driving makes the top 3 worst
   habits.
 * Eating and driving is the worst habit for Alaska, Louisiana, Oklahoma,
   Tennessee and Wyoming.

 * 23% speed up to catch a yellow light
 * 12% text while driving
 * Over 1 in 10 (11%) have honked, cursed or gestured at another driver in anger
 * 94% consider themselves to be  good drivers


OTHER INTERESTING DRIVING BEHAVIOR STATISTICS


MEN CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE BETTER DRIVERS THAN WOMEN

 * 94% of respondents considered themselves to be good drivers (96% of men, 94%
   of women). Data from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety exposes an
   interesting difference between male and female drivers. While more males than
   females die each year in car crashes, females are more likely than males to
   be killed or injured in crashes of similar severity.


AMERICANS FEEL DRIVERS ARE GETTING WORSE SINCE COVID-19

 * 50% of respondents feel driving has gotten worse since the Covid-19 pandemic,
   and only 14% of respondents feel it has gotten better. This finding aligns
   with a 2023 survey by Verra Mobility, a provider of smart mobility
   technology. In that survey, 54% of Americans felt the average driver was
   worse now compared with the pre-pandemic period. And 40% felt less safe on
   the roads.


TEXTING WHILE DRIVING IS THE WORST BEHAVIOR DRIVERS HAVE WITNESSED OTHERS DOING

 * 40% of respondents encounter other drivers texting while driving regularly
   (several times in the past month). If you’re not convinced of the dangers of
   texting while driving, consider this: Sending or reading a text takes your
   eyes off the road for 5 seconds, according to the National Highway Traffic
   Safety Administration. At 55 mph, that's like driving the length of a
   football field with your eyes shut.


YOUNGER GENERATIONS MORE LIKELY TO TEXT WHILE DRIVING

 * 18% of Gen Z respondents and 22% of millennial respondents admitted doing so
   in the past month. That compares with 11% of Gen X respondents, 4% of baby
   boomer respondents and 1% of Silent Generation respondents. For younger
   drivers, the consequences of texting while driving can be deadly. Among fatal
   crashes involving distracted drivers in the U.S. in 2019, a bigger share of
   15- to 20-year-olds were distracted than drivers 21 and older, according to
   the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).


HOW TO WATCH OUT FOR DANGEROUS DRIVING


1. STAY ALERT AND AVOID DISTRACTIONS

It’s important to always keep your focus on the road and avoid distractions such
as texting, calling, eating and listening to music. Defensive driving means
being aware of your surroundings and anticipating any potential hazards.


2. KEEP A SAFE FOLLOWING DISTANCE

Be sure to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. The
general rule is to stay at least 3 seconds behind the vehicle ahead, which gives
you enough time to react to sudden stops or changes in traffic conditions.


3. WATCH OUT FOR AGGRESSIVE DRIVERS

Be on the lookout for aggressive driving behaviors such as tailgating, excessive
speeding and erratic lane changes. If you encounter an aggressive driver, it’s
best to safely distance yourself from them.


HOW BAD DRIVING AFFECTS YOUR CAR INSURANCE


1. HIGHER PREMIUMS

Insurance companies calculate premiums based on the risk of insuring the driver
and vehicle. If you have a history of causing accidents or racking up speeding
tickets and other violations, expect your premiums to be higher.


2. LOSS OF DISCOUNTS

Many insurance companies offer discounts for safe driving. You’ll lose these
discounts if you accumulate tickets or cause accidents.


3. IMPACT ON FUTURE INSURANCE RATES

A poor driving record can follow you for years. When you apply for a car
insurance policy, the insurance company will review your claims history and
motor vehicle report, and these will affect the rates you’re offered. State laws
vary based on how long these problems can stay on your record, but expect
tickets to generally remain for three to five years.


METHODOLOGY

To determine which states have the worst driving habits, Forbes Advisor compared
all 50 states across the following 19 metrics:

 * Percentage of drivers who report speeding (less than 10 mph over the speed
   limit) in the last month (2.5% or score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report speeding (10 mph to 19 mph over the speed
   limit) in the last month (5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report speeding (20 mph or more over the speed
   limit) in the last month (7.5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report speeding up to catch a yellow light in the
   last month (5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report running a red light in the last month (5% of
   score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report texting while driving in the last month (5%
   of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report eating while driving in the last month (5%
   of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report changing lanes or turn without signaling in
   the last month (5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report honking/cursing/gesturing at another driver
   in anger in the last month (5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report tailgating in the last month (5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report cutting someone off in the last month (5% of
   score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report refusing to yield to another driver in the
   last month (2.5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report putting on makeup/get ready (brush teeth,
   shave, etc.) while driving in the last month (5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report speeding in a school zone in the last month
   (5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report being involved in an accident for which they
   were not at fault in the last month (2.5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report driving while under the influence of alcohol
   or drugs in the last month (5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report causing a car accident in the last month (5%
   of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report passing in no-passing zones or when it is
   dangerous to pass in the last month (5% of score).
 * Percentage of drivers who report not doing any of the bad driving behaviors
   above in the last month (15% of score).

Data for all metrics comes from a survey of 5,000 Americans with a driver’s
license (100 in each state) who are at least age 18.

This survey was conducted by market research company Talker Research, in
accordance with the Market Research Society’s code of conduct. Data was
collected from June 24 to July 3, 2024. The margin of error is ± 1.4 points with
95% confidence. This survey was overseen by Talker Research, whose team members
are members of the Market Research Society (MRS) and the European Society for
Opinion and Marketing Research (ESOMAR).
