Alabama ranked sixth overall among the 50 states for having the most confrontational drivers.
Alabama drivers tied with drivers from Rhode Island and Illinois for being most likely in the nation to report that another driver has tried to block their car from changing lanes . Alabama ranked fourth worst for both the percentage of drivers who experience road rage very frequently in their home state and the percentage of drivers who have been on the receiving end of rude or offensive gestures while driving .
87% of Alabama drivers said another driver has yelled at them, insulted them, cursed at them or made threats, the fifth highest amount in the nation. Drivers from the Yellowhammer State also tied with drivers from Maryland for being fifth most likely to say that another driver has honked at them in frustration . A recent study by Forbes found that Alabama drivers were among the most confrontational in the nation. Alabama was the highest-ranked southern state, ranking behind only Arizona, Rhode Island, West Virginia, Virginia, and Oklahoma. Connecticut, Illinois, Texas and Ohio ranked behind Alabama to round out the top 10. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, neighboring states Florida , Mississippi and Louisiana were ranked well below Alabama.
