There's a 19% spike in accidents over the Thanksgiving holiday, and statistically, Houston is the worst.
Alcohol and speeding are big issues, and I wonder if maybe turkey induced sleepiness is also a problem? (There is literally nothing about turkey induced sleepiness in the ABC 13 article where I found this info. It's pure conjecture on my part.)
The top 10 most dangerous cities to drive in over the Thanksgiving holiday are:
- Houston, Texas
- Los Angeles, Calif.
- Orlando, Fla.
- Atlanta, Ga.
- Greensboro, N.C.
- Philadelphia, Pa.
- New York, N.Y.
- Columbus, OH
- Chicago, Ill.
- Greenville, S.C.
