This story is out of Minnesota, but reckless driving is also a North Dakota issue.
According to a 2021 study by Car Insurance Comparison, North Dakota made a list of "10 States with the Most Reckless Drivers" in 2019. That year, there were 69 reckless driving fatalities, which is, "9.05 reckless driving fatal crashes per 100,000 residents." That may be a small percentage of the population, but driving recklessly is a dangerous choice. Make a smart choice and pay attention to your vehicle and the road.
