I've found the older cities I've lived in with much tighter roads have much better drivers as a result.
People know their distances and are hyper-aware of their surroundings because it is a necessity in order to avoid minor collisions.
In cities that are more 'designed' by traffic engineers there is ample room so people don't know the dimensions of their own vehicle and travel at greater speeds while letting themselves be distracted more frequently. The accidents that result are usually frame-bending as opposed to bumper replacements.
