We're Rude, but At Least We're Not the Rudest!

AutoVantage gave rude drivers across the United States a huge middle finger when it released its rankings of cities with the most obnoxious drivers.

Boston was well represented with the number three spot, but Miami topped the list for the second year in a row.

Miami? We're a little disappointed. Boston has its eyes on the prize. There's nothing quite like a Boston driver thanks to the lack of street signs and ongoing battles among drivers, peds, and cyclists. Greater Boston once quoted a resident as saying, "I got road rage, and I'm going to use it." That statement sums it up – road rage is a Boston driving essential. It's certainly more essential than a blinker.

On the bright side, we moved up the charts this year. Last year Boston drivers didn't rage enough, and we were ranked at a lowly fifth place. But if we try hard enough, lay off the blinker, and lay on that horn, we'll be number one next year!

Here's the top five rudest: Miami, NYC, Boston, Los Angeles, and DC.

Yeah, it's from Wisconsin, but it is a stunning example of road rage in action.
