Thought some might like to see this: http://channels.isp.netscape.com/whatsnew/package.jsp?name=fte/driverszodiac/driverszodiac quote: It was supposed to be a joke--a fun way to show that auto insurance companies vary widely in how they determine the amount of premiums to charge. Toronto-based InsuranceHotline.com, a Web site that quotes drivers on insurance rates, conducted a tongue-in-cheek study of 100,000 North American drivers' records from the past six years to predict good and bad driving behavior based on Zodiac signs. But the results have stunned the experts because they actually seem to mean something

As a Leo, I will of course, agree! LOL Hey, I have been driving for 21 years and no accidents of any kind. (Plus my crazy Virgo that wants to break it down to a detailed science) IP: Logged |

I was just sharing in case anyone was curious or appreciated the fact that someone did a study and even just doing it as a joke they found patterns they weren't expecting to find.I could point out that what they said about Libra isn't entirely true...Libras don't automatically "embody balance, harmony and consensus" but rather seek and require it to be at their best, and it's real hard to do that on the road if there's a lot of traffic, rude drivers, even phones and music active! When Libra's scales go out of whack then it can become hard to think and if out of balance for too long then Libra can rage like anyone else (though will typically feel bad about it later). I've always hated driving myself and when I do I don't even like music playing (at least not when there's a lot of traffic), or if there is then I want something quiet and soothing on. Though that said I don't recall any trouble with reflexes, whether in a car or on a bike or skateboard (I like the latter two as long as I don't have to put up with a lot of traffic). I don't have to carefully consider whether or not I want to speed out in front of that car, obey that traffic sign/light, or run over that pedestrian. ETA: I also recall reading that lawyers were one of the most likely to get into car wrecks, and plenty of Librans will pursue law as a career...I also wonder how many lawyers were either exhausted from hours of work and/or talking on a phone about high stress issues when they got into their accidents.

Yep! It wasn't that I drove safely. It was that I never screwed up.
