I was a driving instructor - and I'm a woman - and qualified to teach advanced driving . Loads of guys loved saying the same thing to me. It did get tedious. I have taught very good and atrocious men and woman drivers so I adopted an stock answer - with both men and women drivers you get the good, the bad and the ugly!

Men can be better in driving in a sense that they are visually aware and have good eye-hand coordination.
But they have more wrecks than females because when they are young they like to hot-rod and race, thus causing more accidents.
Females generally do not race against others...although some females do, a majority do not do it repeatedly.
Although I find the most dangerous of drivers are women in minivans....I swear they think they can take the road over.
Anywho, it is very tiring to hear it..but I put it aside knowing that everyone isnt good at everything and both men and women will have wrecks.

I am a woman and have been driving 22 years.....clean licence and no accidents...touch wood. However I have had two cars written off by male drivers one of which received a conviction for dangerous driving.....There are good and bad drivers in both sexes but I do think some of the worst accidents are speed related and the drivers in these type of accidents are generally young males. ....

I'm a women so you can't say i'm being sexist but I do agree with the theory that men are, in general, better drivers because they have better spatial intelligence than women. Also the reason why men are better at kicking/throwing a ball.
I personally don't have a problem with this theory. So men can kick a ball and park a car. Women are better at everything else in life.

it's entirely up to the individual.
I can tell you that both accidents I've been in involved a male who hit me (their fault).
Lately, it seems that the really bad drivers are the ones with a cell phone glued to their heads, either young men or soccer moms.
People, get a hands free phone!!!

Men are better drivers. Women are safer drivers. Men are careless and try to show off and it cause more wrecks.

Not all blokes say this.
Not all blokes cut you up, pull out without indicating, push in after having skipped to the front of the merge lane and aggressively barge in and give you the finger if you don't move or let them in.
Some do though...

actually its been proven that women have far fewer accidents than men...but saying that my husband is one who hates women drivers if i am driving he hangs on to the seat muttering houston were in trouble....if a man makes a booboo then his mother has taught him to drive is hubby's response .....but guess who has points on his driving licence not me lol lol

i don't care what people say.
all i know is, women generally pay less car insurance than a man (at least in the US), so i think the statistics speak differently.
