Texas was found to be the best state in America to drive in, while Kansas was ranked second and Nebraska third. Oklahoma also performed well on the list, landing at number 14.
Among HPPR states, only Colorado didn’t make the top half of states; the Centennial State landed at number 32 on the list. Washington State and Hawaii were found to be the worst states for driving.
