Most Dangerous Drivers By Profession

Who said that most bad drivers are teen drivers? Well, according to a study by online agency Insurance.com, professionals pitch in a pretty hefty share in the motor vehicle accident statistics.

The study was based on the number of accident claims filed by drivers who are classified by their jobs. So in short, here are the top ten most dangerous or accident prone drivers by profession:

  • Attorney/Judge
  • Financial professionals
  • Government worker (GS6)
  • Bartender or Waiter
  • Business Professionals
  • Dog Groomer
  • Marketing/Advertising professionals
  • Barber/Stylist
  • Coach
  • Nurse

The research also found that surprisingly, athletes and homemakers are the least dangerous drivers. Sam Belden, vice president at Insurance.com attributed driver distraction as the main cause of accidents for the abovementioned professionals.

For people like lawyers or financial professionals, their careers prove to be an endless source of distraction as they are frequently “on-call” and are often required to multitask.

However, while homemakers are also prone to multitask, they fall on the opposite end of the spectrum because they often have children on board the vehicle. Thus, homemakers are usually more careful drivers than lawyers or finance professionals who always seem to be in a rush.

Perhaps another factor that the study failed to mentioned on why lawyers/judges are high on top of the list for the number of most accident claims filed is the fact that these legal professionals would know how to properly and successful file a car accident claim.

Ordinary people would often just grit their teeth over the car accident damage and injury and suck it up instead of going through the hassle of trying to get compensation from their insurance companies or the liable party.

But if you are involved in a car crash accident, there is no need to endure and have to spend all of your savings on fixing your car or getting proper medical attention. If you don’t want the hassle of having to take care of your claims, you can hire the services of a car accident attorney or a personal injury lawyer – because clearly, they’ve been there and done that.
