Research by a US car insurance company suggests judges and lawyers are the most accident-prone professions.Web-based provider insurance.com looked at the number of people seeking a car insurance quote from their site who had previously made an accident claim. The legal profession fared particularly badly, taking out the top spot."Professions that demand multi-tasking - being on the phone, moving fast on a tight schedule - are prone to more distractions and, from there, more accidents," company spokesman, Sam Belden, says.The second-worst offenders were financial professionals, followed by government workers, bartenders-waiters and other professionals.Rounding out the list were dog groomers, marketing-advertising types, hairdressers, coaches and then nurses.
