According to a study by InsuranceHotline.com, a Web site that quotes drivers on insurance rates, astrological signs are a significant factor in predicting car accidents.
The study, which looked at 100,000 North American drivers' records from the past six years.....
Best to Worst
Best to Worst Drivers' Astrological Signs for Tickets & Accidents
1. Leo
2. Gemini
3. Cancer
4. Virgo
5. Capricorn
6. Sagittarius
7. Taurus
8. Scorpio
9. Pisces
10. Aries
11. Aquarius
12. Libra
I'm right in the middle, so it must depend on what kind of a day I'm having on how I drive.

redhairNfreckles,
I think this study is "tainted" by California standards... 
for example, I am considered: Best to Worst Drivers' Astrological Signs for Tickets & Accidents
11. Aquarius
12. Libra which I resent  (just kidding...  ) since my Sun Sign in Aquarius with Rising Sign in Libra WHILE I've only been handed a $15.00 parking meter ticket (missed it by five minutes due to a length lunch at a Popular Bistro...) and ZERO Accident so far (knock on wood...  ) and when I called my Insurance Agent he told me not to worry about "the ticket" since it wasn't a Moving Violation... 
anyway, I "think"  you MADE My Day!!!  All this time I thought it was the Tank (or Battleship as one mechanic calls the Kar I'm driving...) and NOBODY tailgates me because everybody thinks Age of Automobile is "proportionate" to Age of Driver......

Well, I'm a Sag, but moon and rising are both Leo...only been in one accident, I was in the left lane and the guy who cut over from the right lane all the way across two lanes apparently thought we could both occupy the same space simultaneously. Wonder what sign he was? (Traffic was insanely heavy, he was a college kid going home for the holidays - color him young, impatient and inexperienced).

@ Julia....funnnie girl!!
I am a Gemini too, and I've had one accident, in my first year, that wasn't my fault. One speeding ticket, also in my first year, and none since...not even a parking ticket.
Perhaps it depends more on the Rising Sign, or Ascendant, as it is usually what governs our reaction to external stimulii. (Did I get that right, Sci????)

I'm always a careful driver-I fell in right!! 
(however, the guy that ran a stop sign at a blind corner and hit me musta ranked further down...!)

Aquarius.... but never had anything major other than once accidentally nearly pinning my sister against a wall while reversing.... luckly nothing happened and this was back when I was a teen....
But my sister is also Aquarius and well lets say that she has destroyed one car and damaged two others.

My B'day is June 21 (1st day of Summer)
In some horoscopes I am a Gemini and others I am a Cancer.
Depending on which day is the cut off.
I have flipped several cars and had way too many speeding tickets.
So I would say the Insurance Company doesn't have a clue.
The signs can't be right as I am near the top.

Pisces .... # 9
I've been driving for 48 years. Never had a ticket. Never had an accident. And, even was a truck driver for 17 years. I guess I've just been a lucky fellow.

I always use my turn signals and try to never go more than 5 mph over the posted speed limit.
For what it's worth, I'm a Leo.

Virgo here (#4).
Never got a ticket for a moving violation that didn't end up getting tossed out. Perfect driving record. One accident (bus slammed into my bike as I was stopped at an intersection at a stoplight).
My driving would probably cause Satan himself to piss in his pants.
But when I have a passenger on the back, I drive more or less normally (but I wouldn't think twice about doing 160 on some Nevada highway in the middle of Nye county).
