This group was followed by staff nurses at 67.6 per cent and operations managers at 61.8 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>Adam Beckett, propositions director for Aviva says: \u201cThe Aviva Drive app is designed to record how safely people drive to produce an individual score for that person.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are lots of factors which affect how safely a person drives and we\u2019re not saying that everyone in a certain profession drives in a particular way, but it\u2019s interesting to see that some occupations score particularly well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople can be reassured that the app measurement is specific to the driver in question, so the safer drivers will get a higher rating \u2013 whatever their occupation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The full list is as below, and lists the percentage of people using the Aviva Drive app who scored between 7.1 and 10.<\/p>\n<p>1.
