why do people say women can't drive ?

hey thanks a lot for posting this discussion. I like your spirit. you said you did not know how to drive a car, even then you went ahead and decided to buy a brand new car. that is really nice. its your will power due to which you were able to learn driving. happy driving. soon you will be perfect in all aspects

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. I think people are often heard saying such vague things and i think in my view, no particular gender should be targeted for driving skills. Even men drive in such a way as if they are driving super sonic jets. More importantly we have to be cautious while driving and follow the traffic rules. Now since u have owned a car, go ahead with it. People like u can prove that woman can be better drivers than men. Happy Mylotting! What say?

The typical masculine and feminine style of driving IS different. Women are more cautious, have a worse affinition for estimating distances, they are always caught up in details. But, firstly, not all women are like this, and this thing is usually said by really chauvinist males. Secondly, this feminine driving style isn't always bad. It might slower the traffic down sometimes or block the way in a parking lot whilst a woman wants to park, but at the same time, they are really cautious and try to park the car AS PERFECTLY as they could. It is the male community who usually park the car in a huff and not really within the lines and the ones who are causing most accidents on the roads, moreover, they are the ones who are more prone to go drunk driving. I'm not saying all of them do, but there are tendencies. (I'm a woman, if anyone is interested)
