This is an interesting article ranking states based on 4 factors, gas prices, infrastructure and safety, insurance rates, legal protections. California came in last. The survey didn't appear to consider legal protections for persons injured in car wrecks, but instead legal protections for persons who violated safety rules, which seems a major flaw in the survey. In other words, your state would rank higher (supposedly better) if it had strong legal protections for truck drivers who get speeding tickets, but it would rank lower (worse) if it had strong legal protections for injured parties.
Unfortunately, that type of thinking is typical when profits are valued over responsibility.
