http://www.investmentnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070115/REG/70111013/1017 NEW YORK � �What�s your sign?� as an opening line may migrate from singles bars to insurance applications. Libras (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) are the worst drivers, while Leos (July 23-Aug. 22) are the best, according to a study released last month of 100,000 North American drivers by InsuranceHotline.com in Toronto, which sells insurance via the Internet in Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States. Libras embody the balance and harmony of the scale, so they aren�t good at making snap decisions, said Lee Romanov, president of InsuranceHotline.com. Also among the worst drivers are those born under the sign of Aries (March 21-April 19) � they are impatient and have a �childlike me-first attitude,� and often are in a hurry, according to the study. Leos, on the other hand, are lions � one of the very few types of cats that live in groups � so they are �generous and comfortable in sharing the roadway,� the study noted. The month in which someone was born is �far more significant than age� in predicting the frequency of automobile accidents and driving tickets, the study concluded. Insurers that use credit scores, zip codes and age to underwrite auto insurance might as well switch over to astrological signs � which are more accurate indicators of driving habits, Ms. Romanov said. Although the study was limited to auto insurance, Ms. Romanov said, she hasn�t ruled out additional research to determine whether people born under certain signs may live longer or be healthier, and therefore deserve lower life and health insurance premiums. This rings true for my ex who had an Aries moon... he was so impatient and pushy on the road, he'd speed up and slow down too quick and ride the brakes, I HATED letting him drive my car! IP: Logged |

I have Mars/Gemini/H2, conj sun, square moon, hahha, yes I was (note the was) the worst driver in terms of aggressive behaviour, shocking and fast....vrrrrooooommm!I've reached a respectable age now though and thought it's time I slowed down, plus a couple of crashes sorted me out, I was in a car (passenger) and we hit a traffic light at speed, yuck, I rolled a car speed/ice/rain combo, not good....write off, my lovely car Plus I don't want the kids to take up my crazy driving skills, I'm currently teaching my 13 y/o some basic basic skills, off the road, (in our paddock) with hay bales etc: it's hilarious actually. Hmm best drivers in my experience, older people, LOL! IP: Logged |

Idk about what signs are best or not but I seem to have inherited road rage (ten fold!) from my Cappy Sun/Gemini Moon (Sag Venus/Mars/Jupiter) mother... I'm terrified to drive with my Dad...so inattentive to the road, but he's the calmest person you'll ever meet driving..however he's always trying to look at everything and everyone else...never the poor road ..he's a Taurus Sun/Leo Moon
for driving "skill" or ability wouldn't you look at the 3rd house, it's sign, ruler and it's aspects? As well as planets there? Also Mercury's placement? IP: Logged | |
