To identify the worst cities to drive in, 24\/7 Wall St. created a weighted index to measure driving and road conditions in 376 metropolitan statistical areas. The index consists six measures: the shares of deadly vehicle accidents caused by weather and by poor roadway conditions; the number of deadly accidents for every 100,000 people; the share of driving deaths involving alcohol; the average annual time lost to traffic congestion; and the average price of a regular gallon of gas at the state level on Nov. 28, 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><strong>Click here to see America&#8217;s worst cities to drive in.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><strong>Click here to read our detailed methodology.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Sponsored: Tips for Investing<\/b><\/p>\n<p>A financial advisor can help you understand the advantages and disadvantages of investment properties.
