UK drivers present a danger driving in the US (and visa-versa) because they are accustomed to driving on the opposite side of the road than in the US.
One can't generalize the driving habits of all American from those that drive in Georgia or Louisiana.
Compared with most countries, many American drivers get drivers education in high school as part of their high school education. In other countries they get it later in life which makes them more dangerous drivers.

Maybe some are a little iffy (around the airports of Florida perhaps), but I'm not sure you realise how close/cheap to reach Europe is and how many folks will hire a car out there too. You're not the only country to drive on the opposite side of the road to us.
