At the back of the ranking, Ile -de -France drivers inherit the last place, with a frequency of accidents 11 % higher to the national average.

A situation that reflects traffic difficulties in these densely urbanized areaswhere the country’s most accidental departments in the country are also concentrated. Bouches-du-Rhône, Pas-de-Calais and Alpes-Maritimes alone represent almost 11 % of national claims. The Rhône, Essonne, Seine-Saint-Denis or the North are also among the most affected.
