An insurance company has discovered certain astrological signs have a predilection for getting tickets and into accidents. Things that make you go hmmmmmmmm

I'm a leo with a gemini rising so that must mean I am a darn good driver!!

he said that certain astrological signs have a greater predisposition to get tickets when driving their cars.

Now I see why I can't autocross worth a ****, I'm an Aquarius.

Scientist? Not very likely.

New age bean counter? Much more likely.

I'm not shure I'd put to much stock in that. I'm suppose to be the #1 most likely for a ticket. I have'nt had a ticket in probably 8yrs.....but I guess I had a car crash at the same time. I'm probably due for anouther crash and/or ticket. CJ (knocks on wood.)

i'm an aquarius, my last ticket was over 4 years ago, and I got it dismissed. last two accidents were not my fault either.
driving habits.... on road: generally very conservative; closed course/off-road: fairly aggressive.
