A woman driving a car

Dissipator

There is a saying in my country that a woman driving a car is like an ape with a grenade, because you never know in what direction it will throw it. :))) What is your regard to a woman as a driver??
And here's a little story for the beginning…
A car's going. There are a man and a woman in it. The woman's behind the steering wheel driving at a rather high speed. Suddenly a STOP road sign appears, but the woman's going on without even lowing the speed.
The man, after his heart beating normalized: "Goddamn! Why didn't you STOPPED?!! Ya wanna kill us all or what!"
The woman: "Whadya mean?? Why should I've stopped??"
"Oh! There was the damn road sign back there! The thoroughfare was forbidden without stopping!"
"Ah! Stop kidding me, please. Ya wanna say all that stuff was written on it?? I couldn't have missed the such large sign…"
:))))

"...& it was found out that more men then women create a dangerous situation on the road "

and it was also found out that women with big breasts created dangerius situations more frequently than those with little ones :))) Even if they're not driving a car… :)))

"Yeah and especially if the driver is a chiropractor."

Yeah, in that case it's important for those drivers to be careful not to confuse levers… :)))

I heard that some or maybe most men don't like women driving way. I'm in my way to get a driving license, the driving institute put a strict rules that it is hard for anyone to get quick driving license although they said it is a luck. When I did my first road test, all the girls with me failed inculding me except one lady. I think the most important point in driving is concentration and being able to control a car.

"For Heaven's gate! Professor, this ship can do 99% light speed. Why are we going at 35 miles an hour??
Because we are in a hurry, that's why!"

Oops.. I thought this was a topic about old people's way of driving.

Driving isn't limited to men only. I see nothing wrong when women drive cars. Actually, in my opinion, women are more mindful with driving rules than men

A recent study by the University of Michigan’s Transportation Research Bureau asserts that there are more licensed girl motorists than men in the United States This turns around a gender gap that has existed behind the wheel for some time, notes the Associated Press. Man, the hunter gatherer needed to speed, navigate unwelcoming areas, and risk boundaries. Woman, the child bearer and caregiver needed to socialize and communicate. Researchers claim that the driver’s license shift will have significant influences on safety technology and economics.
