(KSL News) -- Not sure if it is a knock on Utah drivers or a compliment to those driving in other states, but Utah didn't rank very well in the latest Best Drivers report.

Utah ranks 77th out of America's 197 largest cities with an average of 9.6 years between accidents. That's just below the national average of 10 years.

According to the Allstate report, that means Utah drivers are about four percent more likely to have an accident.
