Never walk behind a stationary woman driver's car on an upward slope if she looks likely to move any second,
she will inevitably roll back before she moves forward.

Also, when at a pedestrian crossing, a man will look to see if he can cross, and if not, push the button, a woman will push the button, then look to see if she can cross before it changes.

Don't know why, prove me wrong.

Ive never rolled backwards when starting off on a hill, I can parallel park with ease, I can even get into supermarket carpark spaces without hitting stuff.

I do, however, have to hold my hand up to the traffic light thing.

*SPANG*
Our local crossing lights were synchronised with the road lights because people kept doing this and causing more traffic

I'm male.
I smack the lights before looking sometimes.

Usually only if I'm bone tired though, to the point it is hard to do much but lean against the pole.

(I do lots of night shifts)

is this also the reason
that most pedestrian crossings now wait for a gap in traffic before changing? I remember when you pressed the button because you wanted to *stop* the traffic so you could cross - these days the fucking things wait for a gap, then change when its safe to cross anyway. *I* can wait for a gap!

Sorry, pet hate of mine.
