Stars and Cars: The Best and Worst Drivers by Sign

Like many people, I inevitably end up checking out my horoscope while reading the funnies on Sunday. Why not? Usually, under my sign, Cancer, I discover that good fortune or a new relationship is heading my way. Even if there is nothing to such predictions, I find they give me a lift. And, the older I become, the more I think the stars may really know our future.

However, despite astrology’s popularity and appeal, it’s rare to see big companies publicly dabbling in the business of the stars. So I was surprised to see the headline of an Allstate advertisement in a September issue of Entertainment Weekly reading, “Virgos have the most accidents. What’s your road sign?” From there, the ad lists the “Official Rankings” of the best drivers by sign. Aries, Cancer, and Taurus are the top three, with Aquarius, Leo, and Virgo at the bottom of the list.
