Gemini drivers are more likely to be involved in a car accident than any other star sign, according to new research by accident management specialist, Accident Exchange.
The study of over 115,000 accidents found that Gemini drivers, known for their impatience, made up nearly 9% of all claims handled by the Company.
The unfortunate star sign affects those born between 22nd May and 21st June.
Taureans, commonly thought to have stubborn temperaments, ranked second place in the table of most accident-prone star signs, making up 8.84% of all drivers, with adventurous Arians a close third accounting for 8.66% of the total.
Interestingly, the three most accident-prone star signs are from consecutive months of the year, suggesting drivers born between March and June are most at risk in their vehicles.
In contrast, quick-minded Scorpions and curious Sagittarians were the least likely to be involved in a vehicle collision, making up only 7.7% each of drivers involved in accidents.
Celebrity drivers involved in recent motoring accidents include Courtney Cox (Gemini), Morgan Freeman (Gemini), George Clooney (Taurus) and Jerry Seinfeld (Taurus).
However, Top Gear presenter, Richard Hammond, who was involved in a near-fatal crash whilst filming, defies his more fortunate Sagittarian star sign.
Psychological expert Phillip Hodson comments; “This survey is based on a very large sample and is therefore hard to ignore.
“We already know that your birth date tends to influence the type of career you pursue with such people as soldiers and artists grouped at different points in the calendar.
“It’s not too far-fetched to think that different driving temperaments may likewise be seasonally influenced.
“The challenge, of course, is for anyone to prove that the Heavens play any part in this process, as opposed to whether you are a child of - say - the summer or wintertime.”

Now I’m a Gemini and I don’t think I’ve ever had an accident.
The only thing that ever happened to my car was some dozey thing reversed into the back of it because she’d forgotten to switch her lights on in the dark.
I’d put money on that person being a Taurus!!

Keanu Reeves is a virgo and he’s had loads of accidents. Y Mab Darogan and Lucy should just get a room!You are both water signs and extremely compatible in love.

The Libra you know probably has accidents because Libra folk - like the balancing scales symbol which represent their sign - are almost entirely incapable of making a decision! Which must be a nightmare for them on the roads.

Utter tosh.
If there are 12 star signs ,with a random distribution you’d expect ~8.33% of accidents in each - so 8.84% is hardly significant !!

Know what you meant there Devon, I’ve been stuck on this damned yellow brick road ever since my ebay purchase sat nav guided me here. I too have no way of turning around and definitely don’t think I’m in Kansas anymore. Where’s a helpful Wizard when you need one?
