Driving with Thousands. Detroit.

Wednesday, January 30th

During morning meditation, I asked my Spirit Guide Somoya what I needed to know for today.  I then heard an internal voice say, "Driving with thousands.  Detroit."  

Before going to bed last night, my wife mentioned how it is 50 below in Chicago, Illinois, and minus temperatures in other mid-west states.  That they have declared state of emergencies.  People are not able to work or go to school, due to the frigid weather.  

Out of curiosity, I Googled Detroit and driving.  Several articles came up about how it is ranked the number one worst city in the country to drive in, especially in the winter.  One article, The Daily Detroit stated, "If you're given a speeding ticket in Michigan, your car insurance rate will increase by an average 49.73 percent.  That increase comes in second to Illinois' 98.65 percent increase.  The national average in insurance rate increase for this offense is 29 percent."

Detroit has an overall ranking of 99 out of 100 as worst cities to drive in.  This is based on four key metrics:

1) Ownership and maintenance costs-98
2) Traffic conditions and infrastructure quality-95 
3) Auto safety-77
4) Auto availability and maintenance accessibility-89

*Michigan is the most expensive state to own a car.  A report released by insuranceQuotes.com has determined that Michigan is one of the states with the highest insurance penalties in the U.S., due to the following:  Speeding, reckless driving, and DWIs.

I found this information very interesting.  I would of made the assumption a large city on the Coast would of ranked as worst city for driving, like New York or LA.
