How many times do you see women pulling out of parking spaces, doing a 25 point turn, pulling forward, stopping, turning the wheel-- pulling backward, stopping, turning the wheel .....? I ONLY see women doing this-- NEVER men. Why does it seem so intuitively obvious to men that this is the fastest way to ruin tires while women seem oblivious to it? And telling them is futile. They will automatically forget within 15 minutes.

I'm a woman, and in general (not all) we have less mechanical skills and more social skills for a few very simple and explainable reasons:

A boy starts driving his first car (although it is a toy) when he is a toddler. That is, he is learning to handle spaces, timing and combining with his mind-hand and foot coordination at an early age. This gives him a great headstart. Then you have the simulator computer games.

Meanwhile us girls are getting barbie dolls, betty crocker sets and dishes for christmas or birthdays.

Boys are taught to be more independent. and usually are out on the street riding their bikes, while we are "visiting our friends house, doing our hair, or going to shopping malls".

Although these are socially constructed behaviours, they do in time tend to impact in our physical and motor abilities. Therefore, by the time we are 16, it is in fact much harder for us to "learn" a skill, boys have been deft at for years.

On the other hand, we have better social skills. Take this one example: most fathers will not know what to do when two or more of their children are fighting or argueing. Mothers will solve that in seconds, without making the problem bigger or turn it into a big fuss.

it is not about being superior o inferior, right or wrong, we just have different capacities. And if men tried to understand this and not honk or yell so much we would be getting some of the understanding we women have had for men's lack of abilities in other areas. We know men are not capable of doing a lot of stuff we do, but we just don't rub it in theiri faces as often as men do it to us, when it comes to driving.

The strategies in themselves don't seem to be competently effective. Yes, you may have regenerative braking, but you ought to bear in mind that with a purpose to opposite the chemical response that has taken location inside the battery, you have got to follow a better quantity of vigour to the battery to conquer inside resistance, and to opposite the consequences of entropy. As a outcome you generate warmth- that warmth is doing not anything optimistic- it's misplaced vigour. Motors and turbines are almost always developed somewhat distinctive for highest potency- this implies the EV's motor should be both so much effective as a motor, or as a generator- you can not have each for the reason that you're seeking to do 2 distinctive matters with the magnetic area at nearly the identical time. One of the ones loses out. Generators produce warmth as good as electrical power. Heat here's doing not anything, and there is not any strategy to get rid of warmth from being produced inside a motor or generator because of hysteresis, eddy currents and simply with ease resistance of the twine. Conversion of the magnetic area isn't one hundred percentage both. And allow us to now not disregard the friction within the bearings themselves in the entire strategies, and the warmth they produce. Lastly, seeking to cost the batteries of an EV by means of tapping vigor off the turning wheels is comparable to making use of the brakes. It takes vigour to show a generator armature towards a magnetic area- that is what you ought to do to provide electrical power. In different phrases, rather then improving a few vigour through regenerative braking, you'll truthfully pass extra by means of minimizing drag at the EV. Drag on this case being the friction of the drivetrain, friction of the avenue floor, friction with the wind, Or as you're seeking to envision- seeking to cost a battery.

I believe that men and women see things in a very narrow view. Women see only men doing things that bug them and men only see women doing the things that bug them when it comes to driving. While this is not true 100% of the time it does seem true for the majority and for many people. Its all a matter of perspective

first of all it sounds like you are only looking at the female drivers,

second i have seen male drivers who could not change a tire. i actually taught a male driver do that.

third i have seen male drivers who don't even know where to find the dip sticks to check all the fluid levels. including the master cylinder.

why do male drivers think they are the better drive when statistics show the female drivers have less accident which are their fault.

actually, i believe the know people hold is an individual thing and driving is as individual as the person driving. so all i can say is keep it safe out there.

good luck

It spreads the reaction force over a larger area of the wheels touching the road and hncemakes it much easier to steer and much less tire ware. ((PS== How about one foot on the brak one foot on the gas-- and touch the brake 4 times each block!!!!)

Moving cars are scary. Simultaneously having the tires roll at the same time you're trying to steer can be very stressful.

I've got a Porsche.

Its not an automatic.

The laws of physics do seem to confound a lot of them.

Yeah...you must live near really stupid women. I can't say I've ever witnessed this event.
