Woman-driver - evil or not?

I think women-drivers are similar to man-drivers, but women.
That is, it does not matter if it's woman-driver or a man-driver, because idiots happen among both woman and man equally.
Also yes, you are sexist, because there is no hidden giveaway here.

I don't think there's a problem with women, I think there's a problem with elder drivers. We let 90+ people, almost blind and almost deaf, still driving without passing any test, for the simple reason that those people can still vote.

I don't think women drivers are bad drivers ... who are bad drivers are people who get distracted, now you do get quite a few women that would text or fucking put makeup on while driving (I've seen a lot of those in my area) but you also get men that get distracted so it isn't something related to gender. On the other hand, my mom constantly complains about women drivers and if someone is driving crap in front of her or causes her to almost get into an accident the first thing she always says is that it's probably a damn women driver XD (though she says this in a very rude manner and with a lot of swearwords), not my words , my moms words there haha.

women cause less accidents then men but if you got hit by an other driver, it depends on luck which gender the other person is so some people get hitten far often by women so they might believe they are worse drivers :(

honestly isnt being sexist against a gender against steamgifts rules? wouldnt this thread be a sure fire trip to suspended central?

You must be one of those cocky alpha males with 0 self-esteem who thinks women belong in the kitchen. Blacklisted for sexism.

is this a troll?!

Uh what?

I was sure this would be a jokey title to a train or something but no, you're just being sexist and stupid.

i have a feeling that he got out of his car and cussed her out or threatened her. seems like the disgusting slime type thing someone with his attitude would do

You have to look at it beyond gender in these cases. Driving is a skill you can develop if you drive often. I would even look at it as a hobby - you have to be invested and interested in it to get good at driving.
Generally women are not interested in cars and driving and its only logical they wont be very good drivers hence more crashes and dangerous situations.
But dont get me wrong - it applies to men just as much. I know dozens of guys who just arent interested in cars and they just go around driving as a chore.. and of course chance of crashing increases...

And I dont think its sexist to say that women arent interested in something. Women do a lot of stuff better because they do it more often and get good practice.

From my personal experience - women have created more crashes due to carelessness because they just dont take driving seriously. Not checking mirrors, running red lights, running yield signs, using phone.. I have had guy friends who have crashed due to recklessness as well.. But thats usually due to their over inflated ego about being a driving gods

PS. To strengthen my case - look at women who are racing drivers - they are professionals at what they do and they are especially good at it. Because they practice and do it often. So its got nothing with gender to do.

All the accidents ive witnessed and heard had males drivers so i cant really give an opinion on women since I felt way more safe with the ones Ive driven with which is not alot

Actually just remembered step dad crashed his car and pretty sure he said it was a woman. However this is a dude that crashes every single car and is still allowed to drive despite losing over 6 at this point

Both men and women do bad driving actions.
And some of them do it conscientelly....

Hi, I'm sorry for your car but u really sexist. Try to pay attention for men drivers and u'll see about same and popular-men agressive style.

I don't think women drivers are any worse than men drivers, and the statistics say the opposite: men drive twice as much as women but account for three times the deaths and 19 times the convictions for deaths caused by dangerous driving. This is probably because testosterone is linked to risky behaviour such as dangerous driving. If you are basing your opinions on anecdotal evidence, my experiences don't paint a good picture for male drivers: I have been crashed into by a driver that failed to give way at an intersection, been chased and punched by two different drivers who broke road rules to do so, once as a motorist and once as a pedestrian, been threatened with an axe handle by a driver, been a passenger in a taxi where the driver pulled a knife on a cyclist that he almost ran over, and had a number of school friends killed in car accidents. All of those incidents involved male drivers, as did my own two serious single-vehicle accidents. Besides the statistical evidence and my personal experiences, one of the greatest rally drivers of all time was a woman, Michele Mouton at a time of rampant open sexism (before the 1981 Rallye Sanremo, which she won, World Rally Champion Ari Vatanen had told the press: “Never can nor will I lose to a woman.”). She won Autosport's 1982 International Rally Driver of the Year award, was at the forefront of competition during the legendary Group B era, and smashed the Pike's Peak Hillclimb record in poor conditions, and with officials attempting to prevent her doing so. Bobby Unser was vocal about expressing how upset he was about her winning, and Mouton is quoted as responding to him "If you have the balls you can try to race me back down as well.”

Yikes.

It's almost as if gender barely has anything to do with driving. Main reason why I said barely was because physical aspects might cause issues at some point, like the average muscle mass tipping the balance towards women for most crashes without power steering in dangerous conditions or something.

But crashes happen with everyone.

Since you're really desperate to have your cock and chromosomes make you inherently better, have a look at this: https://www.trafficsafetystore.com/blog/who-causes-accidents/

Men get more DUIs, traffic violations and are deemed responsible for a greater portion of car accidents.
But they also drive more miles than women—a lot more. Although a recent study indicates there are over one million more licensed female drivers than licensed male drivers, men drive about 40 percent more miles per year.
Some subject experts hypothesize that men – particular men under 25 – get in more accidents because they’re more prone to aggressive behavior and risk taking.
But let’s look at the numbers:
Men cause 6.1 million accidents per year and women cause 4.4 million per year (National Highway Safety Administration)
105.7 million women and 104.3 million men have drivers licenses (University of Michigan’s Transportation Research Institute)
On average, men drive 16,550 miles and women drive 10,142 miles per year ( Federal Highway Administration)
So men account for roughly 1.73^12 miles driven per year, while women drive a combined total of 1.07^12 miles per year.
That means men drive about 30 percent more miles than women. Yet, they’re implicated in slightly less than 30 percent of car accidents. Men do cause more accidents, but they are actually less at-risk than women, by a small margin.

I wouldn't say you're sexist really. Just that you lack independent thought and instead consume stereotypes as actual facts. If you looked at things with more of a nuance than "Do you ever see a man-driver, doing makeup during he drives car?" then you'd quickly come to the realization that life isn't as simple.

sorry my bad english i'm not able tot know\study it for some reasons...this said...
Each woman is different,you can't think all woman is same,same clones or robots.
There is Mans that is very stupid in how they drive (They surpass car also in turn road,they don't keep security distance from car front of them,they not slow speed inside city etc.) so the same can happen for womans there is woman Percect drive for many years never 1 accident and there is womans that make many of them,in the same way of mans.
Woman's it's just same as mans , there is good,there is bad,is not about Sex,is about habit,education etc.
There is also mans and womans that like drugs or alchool or use car same if is a Home or a Discoteque and so they play phone,games,or turn head around for watch\talk\sings friends back while drive and so this mans and easy is put also life of others at risk,because these people is easy to make accidents.

Top of that today's\old car that don't have automatic drive etc require one important thing , to stay Focused on road and drive , but many people that make accident most of time reason is because they is not focused at all,maybe smoke 1 cigarette,maybe use phone,maybe watch a sexylady\mans,maybe change channel radio\music while drive etc. while drive and so then accident,people think that do this things is normal in car ,normal actions,and they think also that is good to do because looks like they are "boss" to others (they want to act like movies fast and furious etc.) but they mistake and not understand that every action extra you do in car is make you lose focus on drive,that is the only thing must to do in drive and that is very important,because if you use your brain\eyes for turn on a cigarette or change a radio channel that 2-3 seconds of lose focus can be enough for kill the driver if the car hit something etc.

People must be educated about the car is a vehicle,it move because reason of gravity and physics and not because magic so must be careful

Not only this but also people must think about the car can happen fault\broken so always must to be ready for save in emergency situation where if the car broken is not work well and is hard to drive,more people understimate this and they think theyr car is never can broken then when happen broken go in crysis and panic and die for can't handle the situation.

Also people must to understand that if they want to do RACING they must to go in racing place motorsport staiums etc.,can't do it in traffic normal pubblic road,is not the same thing and is put other lifes before yours at risk.

Also people must understand that we have only 1 life,if we make and accident and die no one give us life back,so we must to take care our life,is very stupid to trow it in rubbish only for run with a vehicle or do bad actions,and they must understand this not for themselph but because there is more people with disabilieties\handicap or homeless or age old people that need HELP OF US so our life is not only important for selph but is plus important also for the fact that we can live and help others and there is more people that need our help,and would be a shame to trow our life away.

This said this is not only about "Drive" can be applied also in works (for example if someone do work abotu cut things or electronics if lose focus can damage his body or die too etc.) , in life is important to stay focused and careful what we do and take care our health and life for the little we can and is important to take care others too not matter from what countries they come,humans is humans and if someone need help and merit it,we must to help.

it is very important to enjoy mom\dad\grandmom\grandad\animals\brothers\sisters\family that we have also,because more people always think life never have "Unexpected" things and all will be forever,but is not , so until we have it must to enjoy , hug,kiss,play togheder etc. because when\if they die no way to get it back in our actual planet\time.

Anyway i'm sad for what is happen you,really bad experience,i hope you will be strong and go next,take care yourselph.

Well. Women drivers sometimes do silly things. Yes. And on three separate occasions I've almost been killed by male drivers. So... Maybe the problem is just "some drivers"?

I think there should be less drivers in general, independant of gender.
we need better public transport, not more cars.

Sex has little to do with bad driving. Interestingly enough, nationality does a lot more. A LOT more:

View attached image.

Woman drivers are dangerous! I mean, one morning driving to work I saw a woman go past me at 80km/h while doing make-up using the rear mirror. I was so taken aback, my shaving razor fell into my coffee!

Young male drivers are much more dangerous than women drivers as a whole. The statistics prove that. Young men like to show off just how cool they are in their cars. Boy racers... a moronic race. There are girl racers too, but most of them are boys. I like to think that the majority of people cop on when they reach a certain age though.

My Dad and brother were driving home from town one day. This car comes off a sideroad to the right to go straight across. My Dad saw it and turned the steering sharp left toward the ditch. The car spun, the other car still hit him on the driver's side, (we have right hand steering) but because the car spun away from the hit, they weren't injured, just a bit shaken. Car door was wrecked though, but because of his quick thinking, it didn't hit full on. Male driver took off at top speed and got away. Successful hit and run.

That happened on a Thursday. The following Thursday, in the exact same place, the same thing happened and a young man was killed. Some guy in a jeep drove straight out onto the main road without looking. He survived, but it was the person he drove into that died.

Could have been anyone of any sex who did that. If it had been a woman driver on either occasion, of course people would have said some things. Why is that?

I think there is really nothing to answer or comment about such a statement.. I feel lucky to be European and to never have read similar sexist ideas before..
