Only in Canada A study of 100,000 drivers finds that the month you were born is far more significant than your age in predicting car crashes.

That reminds me of that very old joke, When I die I want to go peacefully in my sleep like my grandpa, not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his car.

Libras get into the most car accidents; Virgos are 9th out of 12. I'm born on September 21st.

This is about the closest I've ever come to driving dangerously.

Incidentally, you are statistically more likely to have an accident if you drive in CANADA during the months of Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and sometimes Pisces. (or to amalgamate a few of them to make a name for wintertime horiscopically, AVOID DRIVING DURING COPROPORN!)

I'm gonna do it.

- Those who are at the greatest risk of getting in a traffic accident are born between Sept. 23 and Oct. 22 (Libra).

- Those who are at the greatest risk overall (both traffic tickets and traffic accidents) are born between Sept. 23 and Oct. 22 (Libra).

Geez. Add on to my fear of driving and crashing (which has prevented me from taking lessons), why don't you.
