    When it comes to DUIs, BMW drivers rank first by far, with 4.8 DUIs per 1,000 drivers. Notably, this is more than double the rate of the next highest brand, Ram, at 2.2 DUIs per 1,000 drivers. Buick (1.7) ranks third.

    Ultimately from the same source, but more up to date. It also has Tesla third in incident rates, behind BMW and Ram.
