How does this qualify as news?

5,000 out of 41 million polled, and that makes for a trustworthy or a even news worthy post about where the worst driver are? And how not even a quarter of the motorists across America would pass a written test?

Even I know how yellow lights work and safe stopping distance..

Play a game after you test and don't avoid cyclists and peds, but aliens! wtf?

If the samples are representative then the results are legit. It's like polling if done right, you can test a small group of people and get accurate results. But you're right about the poor results not being news.
