Who are the riskier drivers: boys or girls?

OK, I know most of you said boys. Everyone knows that teenage boys are risky on the road, right? Well, it turns out that trend may be reversing. A new survey shows that teenage girls are more likely to speed, text and drive aggressively.

The results surprised even the Allstate Insurance researchers who conducted the survey. For years, they have tagged boys as more dangerous. But, some feel that girls are just becoming more competitive overall and that may be spilling over on to their behavior on the road.

Experts say that parents need to sit down with teens and talk about danger on the roads. Check out our website for a contract you can put together with your child.
