to wade into the driving thing
i have always thought that bad drivers can usually be stereotyped according to sex. got a total twat hooning around at 137,000,000 miles an hour, roaring the engine, beeping the horn, music at earbleeding level, swerving all over the place and cutting up all 3 lanes of traffic without indicating? that's inevitably a man.

got a total twat dithering at a junction too wet and scared to turn right or left, driving at 5 miles an hour completely oblivious of the huge Q of traffic that has built up behind, taking 15 hours to reverse into a space on the high street that a double decker bus could have driven straight into and still parking 6 feet away from the kerb... that'll be a woman, then.

I've told you
100 times not to exaggerate.

/annoying "joke" platitude

I like this
anyway, as for sexism, I don't really like stereotyping of any kind, but I would say that women are crap drivers due to a lack of confidence, while men are crap drivers due to arrogance. I really don't get the not-indicating thing. It's like people think once you reach a certain level of driving ability you stop needing to signal other road users. According to advanced training drivers should be aware of everything hundreds of yards ahead and NEVER get angry at other drivers or pass on the blame. I bet about 80% of drivers would fail this on attitude alone..!

Indicators on fucking roundabouts
It seems that this has become pasé in the last few years.

I never drive when pulling off.

stereotypes aside
I don't think I've ever seen a girl-racer.

I actually have
It's one of the funniest things I've witnessed. Naturally the car was bright fucking pink, huge body kit, huger exhaust, same huge stereo, same weedy little engine.

^ now that
is fucking funny. What would be the female equivalent of buying a car with a long bonnet? (Such as certain roadsters). A car with a tiny boot perhaps?

haha
i have an slk. you can't fit a postage stamp in the boot. therefore i like your analogy.

Er?
So, massive bonnet = tiny cock, tiny boot = massive arse?

the only reason i want to drive
is to drive REALLY fast, preferably a bugatti veyron or, failing that, a pagani zonda.
the chances of this actually happening are about the same as the chances of my tits turning into mongooses.

Hey!
I once managed to quickly parallel park a VAN. In LONDON. Go me!

The fact that I am female and consider that a memorable achievement as opposed to a piss easy task not worth bragging about may justify the stereotype...

Go, me, then
I'm one of the willy-enabled set, so fairly confident of my driving ability. On one occasion, I drove my brother's Audi V8 out of Rheims in France, and into the French Alps. It was only the second time I'd driven that car, and all I had to navigate was him frantically pointing, and a map of Europe printed on a piece of A4 paper.

When we stopped for lunch, I parked up. He got out of the car and began pissing himself laughing. I politely asked what the problem was.

He noted that I'd driven his car out of a French multi-storey, two hundred miles across a foreign country, and then parked like a girl! OK, the car was in two spaces, rather crooked according to the lines, and had the wheels turned a bit, but I always park like that.

Oops.
