Tampa drivers aren't as bad as you think
Tampa drivers go 10 years between reported collisions, per Allstate claims data on motorists from the 200 biggest U.S. cities. Why it matters: The findings put a little quantitative weight behind some people's strongly held beliefs about the quality — or lack thereof — of their neighbors' driving skills. Driving the news: Drivers from Boston; Washington, D.C., and Baltimore go less than five years on average between collisions, according to Allstate's 2025 America's Best Drivers Report. Motorists in Brownsville, Texas (about 14.2 years); Boise, Idaho (13.9) and Fort Collins, Colorado (13.4), meanwhile, enjoy the longest average stretches of collision-free driving. The nationwide average is about 10.6 years. How it works: Allstate's report is based on 2022-2023 claims data and defines collisions as incidents resulting in property or collision damage claims. That means minor fender benders that go unreported — as common in city driving as potholes and work zones — aren't captured here. The findings are based on where drivers live, not necessarily where incidents happen.

Drivers from these cities have the most frequent collisions
Boston; Washington, D.C., and Baltimore drivers go the fewest years between reported collisions among motorists from the 200 biggest U.S. cities, per Allstate claims data. Why it matters: The findings put a little quantitative weight behind some people's strongly held beliefs about the quality — or lack thereof — of their neighbors' driving skills. Driving the news: Drivers from the three aforementioned cities go less than five years on average between collisions, according to Allstate's 2025 America's Best Drivers Report. Motorists in Brownsville, Texas (about 14.2 years); Boise, Idaho (13.9) and Fort Collins, Colorado (13.4), meanwhile, enjoy the longest average stretches of collision-free driving. The nationwide average is about 10.6 years. How it works: Allstate's report is based on 2022-2023 claims data and defines collisions as incidents resulting in property or collision damage claims.
