Mercedes-Benz SL…Really?
A new study by Verisk Analytics has come to s surprising conclusion…that drivers of the Mercedes-Benz SL are the most likely to get traffic tickets.
If you asked us we’d say that drivers of Corvetts or perhaps Subaru STI’s or perhaps Mitsubishi Evos would be on the top ten list.
But no.
If you look below you’ll note that Mercedes Benz is well represented with four cars in the top ten.
Perhaps the biggest surprise is the #2 slot which is held by drivers of the Toyota Solara. The theme of many of the top ten cars is that they tend to skew to older and of course more affluent drivers.
So perhaps these drivers not only have the money to buy the expensive car…but pay the traffic ticket as well.
