### What central question are you interested in exploring? Why are you interested in exploring this question?
What is the most deadly coast in america to drive in?
I am interested in this becouse i live on the east coast and we have alot of car
accidents. People drive very fast here. The roads are not always paved properly and maintained. I want to know is it just bad luck when people get into accidents or is it their own fault.
*This should be the big picture question that you ask; use at least 5
sentences to describe why you are interested in it.*
### What specific research questions will you investigate?
*List 2-4 specific research questions. Each should be answerable
using your data set.*
1.Is drinking and drinking the biggest cause of fatal collisions?
2.what state are you mostlikly to get in a fatal collision for your first accident?
3.what state is the most unluckiest state for fatel collisions?
4.Is there a connection between the speed or the roads that are causing fatal collisions, that would make the Car Insurance Premiums more expensive?
## Data source
### What data set will you use to answer your overarching question?
The data set is call Bad Drivers
https://github.com/fivethirtyeight/data/tree/master/bad-drivers
*Give the title of your data set and provide a link to your data.*
### Where is this data from?
I got the data set from FiveThirtyEight. It was used for an artical call
"Dear Mona, Which state has the worst drivers?" in October 2014. The person that wrote the artical is Mona Chalabi, they are a data editor at the Guardien US,
and a columnist at New York Margazine, and a lead news writer for FiveThirtyEight.
*Describe the source of the data set--not just where you downloaded it, but
the person or organization who gathered the data. Explain why you trust them.*
### What is this data about?
The date is about fatal collisions in each state. There are 7 rows, some of the rows
are about "Percentage Of Drivers Involved In Fatal Collisions Who Were Alcohol-Impaired" and "Percentage Of Drivers Involved In Fatal Collisions Who Were Not Distracted"
*Describe the nature of the data in the dataset, including the number of rows
and some of the columns which will be important to you.*

### How will you use your data set to answer your quantitative questions?
1.Is drinking and drinking the biggest cause of fatal collisions?
I would get the mean of all the 5 different way fatal collisions happen in
the U.S and then compare to see which one happenes the most often.
2.what state are you mostlikly to get in a fatal collision for your first accident?
I would focus on the data set about "Percentage Of Drivers Involved In Fatal Collisions Who Had Not Been Involved In Any Previous Accidents"
3.what state is the most unluckiest state for fatel collisions?
I would compare the percentage Of Drivers Involved In Fatal Collisions Who Were Not Distracted in every state.
4.Is there a connection between the speed or the roads that are causing fatal collisions, that would make the Car Insurance Premiums more expensive?
I would gaither the average speed and miles of fatal collision in every state and sort the states by least to greatest insurance premiums and see if they aline.
I will present the data in a chart format
*For each research question, explain what you will do with the data set
to answer the question, and how you will present your answer (e.g. a chart or a table).*
