There is nothing worse than the feeling of being stuck behind someone who is holding everyone else up driving slow in the fast lane. Other than that... I really have nothing complain about while driving around in South Carolina. Whatever your thoughts are about the drivers in the Palmetto State... South Carolina does NOT have the worst drivers. According to SmartAsset, Mississippi has the worst drivers. They considered 4 metrics. The percentage of drivers who are insured, the number of DUI arrests per 1,000 drivers, the number of fatalities per 100,000 vehicle miles driven and how often residents google terms like 'traffic ticket' of 'speeding ticket'.
