Drive like you’re from Cedar Rapids

And the U.S. city with the safest drivers is . . . not Wichita. As if we didn’t already know. We drive here, after all. Analyzing crash and claim data for 196 cities, Allstate Insurance crowned motorists of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the nation’s safest for averaging one accident each every 15 years (the national average is every 10). Wichita came in a respectable 32nd place, averaging 11.1 years between crashes. What doesn’t compute, though, is how Topeka (seventh) and Kansas City, Mo. (25th), could best us. We drive there, too.
