Texas freeways are among the most dangerous in the country, according to a new study.

A recent study by Forbes ranked freeways in 47 of the nation's largest cities by how dangerous they are. Factors they considered include safety, cost of vehicle maintenance, and the availability of car repair services.


At the top of the list is Oakland, California - making it the worst city for drivers overall, according to the study. However, Texas cities were also prominently featured in the list.

Both Houston and Dallas made the top 10. Houston claimed the 4th spot due to the shortage of car repair shops along with long commuting times.

Dallas was ranked 8th, primarily because of high insurance costs, severe gridlock, and a high frequency of accidents. Fort Worth also made the list at number 17.
