News: Mississippi named the second most hazardous state for teenage drivers  


New research reveals Mississippi is the second most deadly state for young drivers, with over 225 deaths per 100k licensed drivers. A recent study looked at driving fatalities between 2017 and 2021 to reveal the most dangerous ages for drivers in every state. New data has revealed that young drivers aged 19 and under are the most at-risk drivers in America, as they report the highest rate of fatal road accidents.  


The research analyzed car crashes reported between 2017 and 2021 to identify the age of each fatality and reveal the most at-risk. As well as this, the study examined the states that see the highest fatality rates per age group. Mississippi has been named the second most dangerous state for young drivers aged 19 and under, with 220 deaths per 100k licensed drivers. Shockingly, this is a 133% increase than the national average, which was revealed to be 97 fatalities per 100k drivers. Although it was drivers 19 and under who were most at risk in Mississippi, data also revealed that the second-deadliest age range for drivers is 20-29. In total, there are over 500 deaths per 100K for drivers under the age of 30 in Mississippi.

  • Auto Correct | Antique Car Talk with Special Guest Pete

    46:48
    The definition of an antique car varies by organization and legal purpose. Generally, an antique car is a vehicle that is at least 25–45 years old, or manufactured before World War II. However, some antique car collectors consider any car that is more than 20 years old to be an antique. A car is considered a classic in Mississippi if it's at least 25 years old. When a vehicle in Mississippi meets these requirements, the owner can register it as an antique vehicle, which will allow the car to use special license plates.Special Guest: PeteEmail the show: auto@mpbonline.orgRecalls: Check for Recalls: Vehicle, Car Seat, Tire, Equipment | NHTSANews: Mississippi claims No. 1 spot on USA Today's best car shows of the yearAuto Casey Car Review: 2025 Subaru Forester | Short Take
