It has always been heard that women aren’t good
drivers. Is it true ? I browse the articles and after drawing conclusions,
generally there are much fewer car accidents than in previous years. This is
very good information without looking at who drives the car. At the beginning I
would like to say that men in the car are very fast, their decision is quick
and more decesive. When a woman wants to make a decision to overtake an another
car it takes much longer. The woman drives much more carefully. I found the
most up-to-date article that summed up the year 2016 in terms of sex that
caused the accident. Men responsible for 73% of accident and women more less 27%. It should be taken into account that men
are more frequent visitors of the roads and more seniors with a driving license
aren’t able to drive a car safely, because the sight is getting worse and the
reflex is much worse than in the young.
All statistics indicate that a
woman is a good driver, not always the same as a man. I think it would be safer
on the road if everyone would think about others on their way. My mother is a
very good driver, I think that she drives very safely and her thought that she
carries children in the car, makes her
more responsible for them. Often when I drive a car I see that women do
makeup and don’t focus on the road, I don’t really think that this is a safe option. Although
sometimes we can talk on the phone. My girlfriend is very careful on the road
and I think that she rides very well although I often see that she does not
know how to behave and it takes her more time than me. Parking in the
performance of women I know and I see it in very funny way. Of course, I always
prefer to drive a car rather than how a woman would do it.
Every driver who can adapt to
the conditions and surroundings and doesn’t pose a threat is a good driver.

1. Not accelerating while joining a road to match the speed of other vehicles.
2. Not keeping the right lane when not overtaking on a multi-lane road.
3. Not using mirrors.
4. Not taking into account that other drivers also are real people.
5. Not knowing about the zipper method for merging traffic.
6. Not using indicators.
This could go on and on. People who generally don't think behind the wheel should not have a drivers license (acquiring which in Poland has nothing to do with the fact if you're actually able to drive safely, it just means you applied to all the quirky rules there are and had a bit of luck).
It is just about thinking about other people. The fact that you're casually driving on the left lane of a freeway at 140kph doesn't mean you have the right to. For your own safety, assume that someone else is going over 200 and will kill you if you keep doing this. Is it still such a problem to move over to the right lane, which by law you should be on while not overtaking? The same goes for joining a highway while driving at 60kph. The speed difference in a crash will be about 80kph. Would you like to drive into a wall at a speed of 80kph? I don't think so.
Another thing that should be considered is routine checks of older drivers. Regular, biannual tests after the age of 50 to determine if the driver is still capable of participating in traffic. This would heavily reduce the amount of critical accidents caused by half blind and slow thinking elderly people who have no idea that they actually are the dangerous ones on the road.
Every single point has nothing to do with gender, so I kind of refuse to answer the question asked in the title, not only because of it being badly constructed, but also that it is impossible to answer.
I never understand why women change right lane to left when whole road is empty.
Finally, everybody should be careful on the street, not only women!
So I must be a very good driver, don’t I?
If we are talking about make-up in the car, we have to remember about men shaving – I saw it many times in Warsaw.
My style of driving is rather dynamic. It's because my father used to drive aggressively when i was younger.
Statistics can't lie, but it's worth paying attention to the fact that many more men drive cars than women. In my opinion, this can affect statistics. In many cases, accidents in the parking lot aren't reported, so they may not be included in these statistics. It's worth notice this fact because in my opinion women are responsible for such offenses to a large extent.
The same goes with panicking in some slow and/or usual situations - be it some bigger intersection or when you are approaching a truck on the expressway. Where men would usually get their surroundings faster or calmly approach the truck, women tend to do "some dumb things" that can result in crashes - be it turning rapidly or squeezing in front of the car on left lane, just before the said truck, as if she didn't have any brakes to use...
While most women tend to drive unpredictably or overly slow, I know some of them who actually drive better (and waay faster) than some men I know. I think that they are more self-confident and thanks to that, they drive normally.
Unfortunately, when it comes to parking, they are all the same - It's ironic that a lady can see place for yet another dress in her closet, but she can't fit a compact-sized car on one, large parking spot. And the worse the woman parks her car, the bigger it usually is... Ah these SUV-dozers, taking 1,5-2 places, parked at any angles but the proper ones...
But alas, many girls are too stupid to drive. They do not understand that not only her life depends on her, but also the lives of pedestrians. Many are more worried about how they look at the wheel. For them, the machine is a confirmation of status. But of course, this does not apply to all the girl's drivers.
In my city a few months ago there was an accident. The girl failed to manage and crashed into the crowd of people who were waiting for the bus. There were a lot of deaths. Then it turned out that the girl was drunk. She was not afraid to go to such a state because her dad was an official in the city government. Such cases have occurred in men, but the main problem is that such people are confident that they will get away with everything.
I do not feel responsible enough to be a driver, prefer a passenger seat.
Those things written in the article are really all bad driving woman sins and should be punished as much as they can:
1. Not accelerating while joining a road to match the speed of other vehicles.
2. Not keeping the right lane when not overtaking on a multi-lane road.
3. Not using mirrors.
4. Not taking into account that other drivers also are real people.
5. Not knowing about the zipper method for merging traffic.
6. Not using indicators.
In my opinion, men have more motivation to be good drivers. Because people say, that if you are a guy, it's a shame to be a bad driver. If you are a bad girl driver, people are ok with that.
Ok, I don't really like women on the road, but sometimes men are even worse. They are less polite, always in a hurry. But every time I see the car, that moves in a strange way, there is almost always a girl inside:D
Guys who believe that they are good drivers by nature? What is next, are white people better drivers? It is ridiculous.
