July 4th is one of the biggest travel days in America. It’s also one of the deadliest days to be on the road. From drunk driving to distracted driving, there are several ways in which accidents can happen. Allstate has put together their 15th yearly America’s Best Drivers Report
in advance of holiday travel, so you can learn where your city ranks and take heed of some safe driving tips from Allstate. Atlanta ranks 178 out of 200 and is the lowest ranked city in Georgia. Be extra safe my fellow Georgia people!
As we’ve talked about before, I love Allstate and have been with them for years. They have a ton of information on their main website to give their customers the most out of their services. But did you know, they’ve also been the leaders in driver safety advocacy? From mandatory seat belts to X the TXT, they’ve driven legislation and overall awareness to the importance of car and driving safety.
Here are some extra safety tips from Allstate to follow while traveling during the holiday:
- Always keep your eyes on the road, stay vigilant and minimize distractions like cellphones.
- Obey the speed limit and give yourself enough time to safely get where you’re going.
- Ensure everyone in the vehicle is buckled up on every trip.
- Never drive while impaired by alcohol or drugs.
- Leave plenty of distance between you and other vehicles, including changing lanes when vehicles are stopped on the side of the road. The faster you’re going, the more room you need to stop safely.
- Be sure to have an emergency roadside safety kit with caution signs and flares, and have a roadside service lined up for when you need a tow.Allstate Roadside Assistance provides options for coverage whether you’re in need now, want to add it to your auto policy or you’re interested in roadside membership.
Have a safe and fun July 4th!!

Having an emergency kit is so important. You never know when you might need it. We have one in each of our cars just in case.
Knowing an insurance company is a leader in driver safety is almost enough to switch. I have a few friends who are with AllState and they have no complaints.
Nnnniiicccceeeeee….I love what AllState does and would love to work with it.
Love these tips, and Allstate is a great company!
They sound so neighborly! You know, like someone would treat their neighbors. I love that in a multi million dollar company.
I love Allstate as well, they are the best if you ask me. I’m going to print out your tips for my newly driving teen grandkids. I didn’t even realize they were the leader in driver safety advocacy.
These are important safe driving tips, especially for the busy roads at the 4th of July. I love how Allstate offers coverage for road side service. It is so important.
This is such a great time of year to share these tips!
Useful tips and great pics, your kids are adorable x
Great tips! The first one is the most important one for me – keeping eyes on the road and minimizing distractions like cellphones! Thanks for sharing!
Safe driving is very important, especially if you are with your children. Driving deals with life too and it takes a lot of responsibility to sit behind the steering wheel.
Safety is so important! It’s great that your insurance company is so commited to promiting and encouraging safety. 🙂
These are great driving tips. I really hope Allstate is available in my country. Perfect for those with kids.
Super important to have a great provider like this. Thanks for the tips.
