Where 2 WI Cities Rank On New Best Drivers Report

WISCONSIN — Madison and Milwaukee are among the safest cities in the United States for drivers, according to a new report released by insurance company Allstate.

First launched in 2005, this year's Allstate America's Best Drivers Report determined the likelihood that drivers in America's 200 most populous cities will experience a car collision compared to the national average.

The report was compiled using property and collision damage claims reported from January 2022 to December 2023.

In this year's report, Madison was ranked among the top 10 safest cities in the United States. At No. 9, Madison drivers are 12 percent less likely to be in a crash than the national average. Meanwhile, Milwaukee ranked No. 59 among the safest cities.

"No matter where you drive, the best way to protect yourself and others is simple: buckle up, stay focused and slow down," said Sandee Lindorfer, vice president of auto claims at Allstate. "These are three of the most effective ways to prevent crashes, and they cost nothing but attention."
