Road manners
If I wave someone through when parked cars are blocking half the road, or I let someone out of a junction, it doesn't hurt to give a little wave or a nod of thanks.

I did a survey over the last week and I found that 9 out of 10 male drivers (and all taxi-drivers and I mean all) were courteous and waved/nodded compared to 4 out of 10 women.

It seems that being female makes you an ungrateful motorist, if you're an older women even more so, and if you're in a 4x4 in an affluent neighbourhood then you tend to just force your way through regardless of whether I'm giving you right of way.

This infuriates me beyond belief
*clicks*

I'm literally swearing away under my breath for a good 5 minutes after a non-waver incident.

Errr yes
Nothing clever to add but gratitude for you bringing this sub class of humanity up. Ungrateful fuckers should be made to walk as punishment.

I've noticed that too
I think it's because women drivers have tunnel vision when they are driving. They can't actually see anybody who isn't directly in front or behind them.

Probably sexist and horrifically un-PC, but...
Whenever I have occasion to drive to work (I usually cycle, and I'm fucking smug about it, so there), my journey takes me down a single lane that splits into two about four car lengths before some traffic lights. The vast majority of cars stay in the left lane, but I need to turn right so take the right lane, which is usually empty. Most of the time I'm blocked from getting into that nice empty stretch of road by a car in the left hand lane [Warning - I'm about to make my point]. If the driver is male, three-quarters of the time he'll notice me behind him and move to give me room. If the driver is female, she'll almost never notice me.

I think it's all to do with cavemen finding things in fridges or something.
