Hey look, it’s another study (this time by GMAC Insurance) showing our driving weaknesses in Boston. Is anyone surprised? No? I’m not either.

This one shows that many Massachusetts residents would NOT pass their drivers test if they were to take it today. And again, as almost all studies show, drivers in the Northeast score especially poorly.

The worst:

50. New York

49. New Jersey

48. Washington DC

47. Massachusetts

46. Rhode Island

Hmmm, I wonder if we should do something about this. Perhaps we could go back to traffic school. WCVB and thebostonchannel.com have opened their own traffic school. Your teacher today will be Cindy Campbell. She carries a ruler.

Here, by the way is the link to the Massachusetts RMV driver’s manual.

Please study it. There will be a test later, and Cindy promises to use the ruler if you fail.
