The perfect subject for this week to entertain us during the day at work. Maybe when we(men) drive home after, we might actually stay calm and feel for them. (I believe some women have good sides too, but this is not the place to discuss it) (you can discuss that during the coffee with moms and moms to be plus their offspring, ow joy!)

Hahah, i a little better than she :D
In all fairness, I've seen a number of cases where a man has had 2m of space to drive a 1.6m car through and he isn't confident enough to try it; instead he gets angry for not giving him enough room.
Next time I'll drive it through for him.

I think they cause more accidents but are actually involved in fewer accidents.

Richard. You beat me to it. Take the following (albeit non-fatal) case, admittedly many years ago but have things changed? A friend of mine stopped at some traffic lights in Leeds and a motorbike crahed into the back of him. His car was new and he jumped out to remonstrate with the motorcyclist who was lying prostrate on his back mouthing the words: "Did you see her?" This was followed by a detailed description of the kind of girl men dream about and my friend was so upset that he missed the girl that he he forgave the motor cyclist, lifted him up and put him on his bike and drove off having forgotten to take name and adress for insurance purposes. So who was to blame for the accident? and the answer is not the motorcyclist

A girl like that in Leeds, eh? Very suspicious.
Not so strange there are dodgy drivers on the road in this area (NOT only females) - when you convert your foreign license they add things - my (female) colleague is now allowed to drive a bus and a truck, although she has never as much as considered taking the test for this ;-)

That's only your subjective male opinion.
But the fact is:
"There is a remarkable amount of nonsense talked about women drivers. The simple fact is that while women may have proportionately more crashes than men, those crashes are, on the whole, much less severe and women are therefore responsible for far fewer injuries and deaths than are male drivers. As a reflection of this fact, many auto insurance companies in the UK are now offering significant discounts for women drivers; perhaps it's time for American companies to follow suit. Sexist guys eat your hearts out!"

Many US companies do (or did) have different rates for women. I think it's only permitted in certain states (or was permitted). I know that many years ago when I lived in Florida, the rates for young women were quite a bit lower.
In California, the rate structures appeared to be the same.

Paul, I like how she throws "subjective male opinion" out there but then one paragraph later follows up by assigning the 'sexist' label to us. Someone who isn't sexist would have said "subjective opinion" and dropped gender from the argument.
Of course it's a moot point because this entire thread is sexist and so am I.

I wouldn´t claim that I`m a good driver. I drive carefully, I think that´s important.
And I so don´t care what others think about it...

How about the French guy who overtook us in the mountains by getting in the opposite lane while there were cars coming. Nearly avoided death although in this case it wouldnt be much of a loss

Yes, Florida women know how to properly manipulate the male insurance salesmen. I see what you did there, sir.

Maria - what are you talking about? Was there an accident? The person at fault was the driver of your car (possibly female or a male townie who is scared of mountains?) who was driving too slowly and holding up the traffic

I assume you are joking. The driver in question was a couple of cars behind us on a narrow mountain road with loads of blind bends who narrowly avoided hitting a car coming in the opposite direction by swerving very suddenly in front of a car some cars ahead of us

Oh.. missed this one.
1) This is a perfect example of an “unambiguous” male opinion.As someone who isn't sexist wouldn't call the thread “Woman and driving”, at first and then wouldn't be claiming on having just a “subjective opinion”
2)Check the statistics I'm referring in my previous post – they are objective..
3) “... one paragraph later follows up by assigning the 'sexist' label to us...” - dudes, I didn't call you by that nick-name, I quoted it ( link's below), …. but if you insist – be my guests .

Greetings. In all fairness, I did not go thru the entire chain of opinions, but over the last 5+ years in Romand I certainly have developed my personal opinion regarding the driving. Firstly, there is a HUGE difference in (traffic) culture when you cross the "Rösti Graben". The German part of this country have adopted - well - the German way of driving; faster, perhaps better, safer. Then. Cross that border again to come to Swiss Romand, and I (honestly) think there is - I don't know - a lottery with a driver's licence as a prize? A quota of filet de perche eaten granting one? Or Müsli? Something? After been living in 4 countries before relocating here, I've never witnessed a (domestic) difference like this!

I have 22 years of driving experience, about 320k miles (515k km) plus 80k miles (125k km) on motorcycles and have never been found at-fault for any of my accidents. I will bow before and wash the feet of any Glocals female on the day that I cause one.
Desir_ee, yours was preemptive.

I think the motorist in your Leeds story is a prime example. There are quite a few cases that the cause of it all gets away. In daily driving there are too many examples of womEn driving and on the phone while going onto a busy highway with 70km an hour not realising what chaos and danger they create behind them. Or those that use the left lane to driving only 5km faster then the one on the right lane and all that under the maximum speed. If your lucky they stay on the left lane and eventually all you can do is overtake them by doing it over the right lane. I do must admit it wouldnt be the 1st time it's an old guy with Swiss plates. It's like they are on a world of their own.
Besides all that, haven't you noticed they(women and old men that cant drive and have the cash), often drive cars that are way bigger then they can handle? Is that because they anticipate on the fact that their chance of getting into an accident is bigger and they try to increase the chance of surviving it (and outlive their vicitim)?

Will not comment on old men as am one and of course am an incredibly good driver (but only because this is in my male genes) With regards to women the heavy Volvo estates were very popular as second cars for housewives* in England and were successfully marketed for their safety in accidents. *I believe the correct term is homemaker today which always conjures up the picture of women with lego blocks building houses. Great forum and have a good evening.

automatic volvo is not car!
Women claim to be good at multi-tasking, but I guess steering, changing geers, signaling and checking mirrors are far too many tasks to manage!

yes Paul this is very true about Czech republic and so sad...and mostly people are drunk and speeding.
I was born there left the country 15yrs ago...Napoli is place where a lived and I took my italian driving licence, same as in UK or America or Canada or CZech Republic but I think driving in Napoli is huge experience and if you can manage there without accident then you can say you know how to drive.

The topic doesnt discuss the difference between men and women, but women and driving.
Is it just me or is it very common these days that people constantly bring up racism? Maybe that should be next topic:
"Racism or Realism"

Oh really women drive badly ? Go back in reality ! NOT ALL WOMEN drive badly ! And some men drive badly too ! So focusing like that on women,..it's not realistic !
It's not a woman who did a reverse gear at a fire stop and crashed my car but a man...So many examples of men who drive badly...if you have a problem with women or a woman you should see the girl and discuss
And the next topic should be :
WHY MEN HAVE PROBLEMS WITH WOMEN

I think you are jumping to conclusions. This is just another example of English as a foreign language. i think she is refering to Formula 1.

Tsatsa,
Have you looked at ThomasNL's profile. He's only 28 years old. You can hardly expect a male of that age to behave in a mature way. Their brain is just not ready.
Let him have some fun.

Girls! Pls don't waste your time debating here.
Nobody is perfect and a person who try to joke about other turn them to a joke at the end because of lack of respect. What can you do?
Move on, look for the beautiful things!
Btw, why the majority who use GPS in car are men? They like to be told what to do like child.... don't they have brain to figure out how to drive themselves? @_@?
Haaa.. another debate! No! It's a joke! Sure, laugh at it! XD

Thomas do not worry it appears my level of maturity is the same as yours. I have no problems living the life of an immature 63 year old.

it might be a symptom of male menopause...
u know how it goes thomas...when people cant find a weak point then they just feel obliged 2 target your age...trust me thomas, iv come across many many folks (men and women) in their 30's , 40's and i can assure u their level of maturity isnt any better than that of a 20 year old...and i include myself on top of the list for immature behaviour at over 30!

When "pull my finger" stops being funny is the day that life will be no longer worth living.

In a recent thread there was the issue of "young men vs older men". The "older men" did not like to treated as if they belonged to a category. Some of them took offense.
I don't see why women would like to be categorised in a similar way. I would be offended if someone put me in some sort of "male" category. It *may* be true that on average women do not control a car as well as men do. It could be because there is difference between the sexes or because their father always told them that they don't drive well. In a male dominated society it's easy to find differences between men and women.
And by the way, good control of a car does not make you a good driver. In order to drive well you need to obey the rules and care for the other drivers.
But I suspect the person that started the discussion simply wanted to be provocative for the sake of it

I'd never do such thing as provoking someone..
It's funny how some women take this subject so serious and some even feel offended. Most of them are above 30 and that IS worrying. I bet it's more fun drinking a beer with a Zombie as these women probably have the same sence of humor as a briquette. All the responses of those frustrated and offended women do give me a smile on my face :)
@Dr.Cat: I think I'd dare to get in a car with you and let you drive.

Not unless my menopause started at 25. Before that I regarded myself as mature: then I matured and realised that I was immature

then go and drink the beer....
what is exactly worrying you about women over 30..?
They are not frustrated or offended they are simply defending themself and aswering the tread.

Fortunately none of these women you refer to (and I am not referring to the ones who took it as a joke and even retaliated with male faux pas - Mr Bean, Irena K's father, and the blonde Croatian who claims to drive like a guy - apologies for the ones I mssed out)) would want to drink with us so everybody is happy.
We can drink with Zombies and they can continue not to have, cause or even dream about accidents. Have a good weekend

No they are not. They have the female premiums at the normal level and then increased the male ones, but the whole thing is called a discount for women drivers
