SEATTLE, July 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- QuoteWizard®, a LendingTree company and one of the nation's leading online insurance marketplaces, today released a report on the 70 best and worst driving cities in the nation.

QuoteWizard sets out each year to see which cities have the worst drivers in America. We analyzed data from six million car insurance quotes from drivers in the top 70 cities in the country. We evaluated cities on four factors to determine overall driver quality and took a composite ranking of overall incidents. Incidents include:

• Accidents
• Speeding Tickets
• DUIs
• Citations (running a red light, using a cellphone while driving, etc.)

Cities rated among the worst were those with the highest rates of incidents, and the best driving cities had the lowest rates of incidents.
