It's an age-old debate - who are the better drivers, men or women?

Not really a debate - I think everyone knows the real answer, but men are the more pragmatic sex so tend not to labor the point. However, since you brought it up:

Quote:

•the generally higher casualty accident rate per kilometre driven by female drivers compared to males.

So despite men exhibiting more of these "dangerous" behaviours, they still don't have as many accidents.

Dammit, man - never let reason and studied data get in the way of a good prejudice! What would become of our society it that became the norm?

We must do away with this gender discrimination, and start executions for females so that the death rate becomes more equitable.

I don't get my husband to drive when we're going out together. Why? Well, he's always in the car first, seated in the driver's seat.... beeping that bloody horn and screaming for me to hurry up.

Oh and he keeps going on and on about my lead foot and how he can no longer take the death rides I give him. I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with him driving us everywhere Tongue

Listen here you... we women take longer to get ready ONLY because we get our children ready first...starting with the eldest. His name is Husband.

excuses excuses .... (it's a familiar one too) I've heard it before, but I don't buy it. If you know you have to be somewhere at 6pm, don't start getting the kids ready at 5.30.
