I think we probably have more Spridget driver per capita from Wisconsin than
from any other state. So you can congratulate yourselves on the results of the
2007 GMAC Insurance National Drivers Test ( http://tinyurl.com/23a7sj ). It
found that only Idaho, Alaska, and Minnesota had more knowledgeable drivers
than you! At the bottom of the list? (Drumroll please...) New York! It
makes New Jersey look good. (Is Frank the only one that has his head screwed on
straight in Joisey?) (Entire list below.) Other interesting findings:
With Age Comes Wisdom: The older the driver, the higher the test score. Drivers
35+ years old were most likely to pass.
More than half of respondents (55 percent) don't know how many feet to signal
before making right or left turns.
More than 2 in 5 drivers (46 percent) are unaware of the meaning of a
diamond-shaped sign (warning sign).
Fortunately, nearly all respondents (98 percent) know what to do when an
emergency vehicle with flashing lights approaches, what to do when hydroplaning
and the meaning of a solid yellow line.
