Men or Women – Who drives better?
While male drivers are higher in number, an insurance study indicated that nearly 80% of serious car crashes are caused by men.
Round 1 – Women!
Another study, however by John Hopkins Schools of Medicine and Public Health, revealed that women over 35 are more likely to be involved in a crash.
Round 2 – Men!
Male drivers tend to be more aggressive and outnumber female drivers 3 to 1 in DUI violations as per the insurance study.
Round 3 – Women!
An NCP parking report performed in England discovered that women took 21 seconds to park while men took 16 seconds.
Round 4 – Men!
But that same report indicated that over 90 percent of women are better at finding parking spaces than men.
Round 5 – Women!
Due to the stereotype, many psychologists believe it can be a self-fulfilling prophecy in which women start to think that males are better drivers.
Round 6 – Men!
