Ohio Drivers Ranked ‘The Nicest’ in the U.S. This Holiday Season
The holiday season is the busiest time on the road for drivers. Traveling to stores to buy gifts, visiting family and friends, and heading to holiday parties keeps us on the road a lot this time of year. And it turns out that drivers in Ohio are better at keeping that joyful spirit while driving through holiday traffic.
The 'Naughtiest' and 'Nicest' Drivers This Holiday Season
A study by GasBuddy was recently released and showed the 'naughtiest' and 'nicest' drivers across the country. The study reveals that U.S. drivers are up to 48% more aggressive on the roads during the holiday season. Drivers were measured number of events of speeding, hard braking, and fast acceleration.
