ORLANDO, FLA. -- Orlando has made the top of another list it would just as soon wish away.
The city has been named the most dangerous city for driving in the U.S. by WebMD.
Researchers said that they compared the rates of motor vehicle crash deaths across the United States, looking at cities and the most densely populated urban areas in the nation.
According to the WebMD information, Orlando had the worst record, with 19.4 car crash deaths per 100,000 residents.
The national average is 11.1 deaths per 100,000 residents.
WebMD officials said one of their data sources was a federal report which showed dangerous driving is not isolated to Orlando.
According to the federal date, four of the 10 most unsafe cities in which to drive in America can be found in Florida.
Besides Orlando, those cities are Miami, Tampa, and Jacksonville.
