A new report from Allstate Insurance says Austin drivers are the most accident prone in Texas.

The national report used insurance claims data to measure the rate of collisions in America’s largest 200 cities.

Drivers in Houston, Dallas and San Antonio all got in accidents more often than your average American.

But Austin was the worst.  Local drivers are 35-percent more likely to be in an accident that the average U.S. driver.  Austinites get in a wreck every 7.4 years.
