Can you judge a person by the car they drive? Yes, apparently you can.

A new report analyzed actual data from insurance companies and accident reports to come up with a definitive list of the best and worst drivers by vehicle brand and here are the results:

1.  Tesla, Ram, and Subaru have the worst drivers.  Across the country, Tesla drivers had nearly 37 incidents per 1,000 drivers throughout 2024.  That includes accidents, DUIs, speeding, and citations. Ram is second-worst, after being the worst overall in 2023.

2.  On the flip-side, Mercury, Pontiac, and Cadillac have the BEST drivers.  Mercury drivers had 19 incidents per 1,000 drivers nationally . . . about half the rate among Tesla drivers. This is the second-straight year Mercury topped the list.

3.  Tesla, Ram, and Subaru drivers also had the HIGHEST accident rates . . . while Pontiac, Mercury, and Chrysler had the lowest.

4.  But Pontiac is the brand with the highest DUI rate, followed by BMW and Tesla.  Volvo, Hyundai, and Kia drivers had the lowest DUI rates.

5.  Overall, they considered 30 brands.  Here’s the full ranking, from WORST drivers to BEST drivers:

Tesla . . . Ram . . . Subaru . . . Audi . . . Mazda . . . Volkswagen . . . BMW . . . Honda . . . Infiniti . . . and Toyota.
