“We are pleased to see the overall decrease in Ontario’s collision rate and hope to see this trend continue,” says Tony Irwin, spokesperson for Allstate Canada. “To help, we are reminding drivers to be attentive and patient behind the wheel. We have developed a series of safe driving tips at goodhandsadvice.ca that we encourage drivers to read and keep in mind whenever they are on the road,” says Irwin.

There will also be an event in Brockville today with the city’s mayor, David Henderson, and Chief John Gardiner of the Brockville Police Service to congratulate the city’s drivers for having Ontario’s lowest collision rate.

“At Allstate Canada we believe the more we bring attention to road safety — whether by examining trends in collision data or demonstrating the implications of driving and using cell phones at a distracted driving course — the closer we can get to achieving our goal of making communities safer for everyone. The Ontario Safe Driving Study collision frequency rates by dividing the number of claims made with Allstate Canada within a community by the number of cars insured by Allstate Canada in that community. Only communities where Allstate Canada insures a minimum of 900 cars between 2009 and 2011 are ranked. Collisions are linked to the address of the insured, not where the collision took place. Rankings are based solely on Allstate Canada’s car collision frequency data and are in no way tied to insurance rates.
