NoVA is a close second I assume.
It's amazing how many drivers have licenses and don't even know the simple concept of "right" of way at a stop sign.
Note: Many states tied for the same position in the rankings.

Pennsylvania is only number 36?! From experiences in the past I would think PA should be 3rd right after New York and New Jersey.
Actually, the worst drivers in the world are east Asian women. This is true whether they are Chinese, Korean, or Japanese.
this is the hardest thing to believe.
Actually, I commuted by car into NYC for years, and never had any trouble. I always found Boston drivers far worse, constantly pulling out in front of you and making you slam on the brakes.
Why is that? Because if you did that to someone in NY, they would slam into your car just for the privilege of nailing someone who offended them. Or maybe they’d pull out a gun and shoot you. Nobody messes with NY drivers.
As a result, in some ways it’s actually safer than Boston.
New York City that would be. They are awful and disrespectful. There’s a whole lot of upstaters that can actually drive. I’d say New Jersey, around the New York City area and Massachusetts in and around Boston are worse than even NYC drivers.
As a Californian, I demand a recount. I drive here every day. There’s no way we’re better than both New York and New Jersey.

How about adding driving skills to the test?
You know this explains why I don’t want to learn how to drive a car until I have too, GA traffic is horrible, espically close to Atlanta where I live. This summer I have to finally suck it up and learn since I’ll be done with college next semester (and pay back all those rides I hitched). Plus I just I am walking accident (and also on a motorcycle) I truely dread the day I have a car.
Good and safe driving starts with simple consideration of other drivers. Public roads aren’t the place for aggression.
There's no way Idaho drivers are that good, and I live here. If any FReepers see an Idaho plate with a "2C" on the left side of the plate, stay away...stay far, far away...
sure there are terrible drivers all over the u.s. but the worst drivers in the world are in china, and france. those people actually try to die/kill someone. no matter how bad it is here in the states, it is way worse in other countries.
I don’t care where they live.
What I want to know is WHERE THEY DRIVE!!

The worst drivers in the world all live in the State of Michigan.
Don’t doubt me.
Just shows dumb motor = dumb voter
Having moved to NY two years ago (and having gotten a job in NJ about six months ago), I’ll agree to the results presented. In any case, when I go back to the Pacific Northwest to drive, it seems like being on a kiddie ride at Playland in comparison.
