To be fair, California is not even close to having the worst drivers.

They are also terrible at parking, and many will go further than the "California stop" (a provincial term describing "we built way too many stop signs and would get 8 mpg if we actually stopped at them") and just blatantly ignore stop signs entirely regardless of traffic. And that's the relatively stable car drivers... Motor- and human-powered cyclists are seemingly suicidal.
Different definitions of worse. Texas is basically one giant DUI, so... Yeah, worse. But also when sober they'll drive circles around the average California driver.
