Thanks To You - We Are Now Prepared To Serve You Better bank Stale Bank research . they have conducted, financial instability is closely related to poor driving habits and frequent accident experience. A recent series of studies on the characteristics of "problem drivers" conducted by the department compared the driving records of three dozenpersons listed as "A" (good) credit risks by the Seattle Credit Bureau and twenty-three persons listed as "C" (poor) credit risks. More than a third of the poor credit-risk group had two or more accidents on their records compared with less than three, percent of the "A" group having the same number of accidents, according to the study findings. The department reports that the "C" group of drivers had almost three times as many accidents and one and onethird times as many traffic - violation convictions that the "A" group ~ despite the fact - • ifuinbei' ^ & people in the "A" group was more than half again as large as in the "C" group. According to Doug Toms, the state's Motor Vehicle Deportment director, Washington has done similar studies on the relationship of driving records to alcoholism, physical disability, disease and driver education (or lack of it), and he reported that a person* s individual credit habits and rating seem to be more strongly related to driving behavior than all the other areais studied. Study findings like these would seem to lend credence to the cancellation criteria of many auto insurance companies. _.
