        I've just had a woman in the carpark nearly run my son, wife and I over on a zebra crossing. She stopped to let someone from the left of her onto the crossing then whilst looking to her left just started driving as we approached from the right. Then had the balls to put her window down and have ago at me for banging her bonnet. She then couldn't realise why the missus tried to grab her by the throat. took me 10 mins to calm the wife down.

          I remember the incident years ago where a women kept taking her car back to the Garage complaining about the poor MPG she was getting.
          The mechanic tried everything and couldn't find a problem.
          Eventually they spotted her getting ready to drive off and hanging her handbag on the handy little gadget below the dashboard - it was the choke!:oopss:

                Women drivers insurance is cheaper---three reasons come to my mind right now.
                One is Men usually will be involved in road rage more so than a women. Men will more likely drive drunk than a women. Men who start driving at a young age will take more scarey risks driving than a women of the same age.

                  Because women know how to cry on cue, thus changing the entire course of any conversation that happens immediately after.

                  Lets not generalize, my dear. I am not one of those crying women.

                  Back to the insurance: statistics that the insurance company goes on. My insurance has been going lower, simply because I do not have any moving violations. Most insurance companies will also give you a discount if you take driving classes.

                      I have no problem with women drivers, other than the high and mighty 4x4 brigade that seem to think because they are higher up than the rest of us means they can park in two spaces.
                      If you cant park it, dont drive it.:)

                        I know that women are as capable behind the wheel as chaps. Still, I just couldn't resist this one:)
