Allstate surveys teens on driving

A survey commissioned by Northbrook-based Allstate Insurance said Thursday that nearly 90 percent of teens said they hope their friends will be safer on the road in 2008, but just 11 percent included "driving more safely" among their resolutions. Fifty-seven percent of respondents admitted to driving more than 10 miles per hour over the speed limit, 22 percent have raced another vehicle and 19 percent have received a traffic ticket.
