Female Drivers Face Less Risk on the Roads

One observation: men are more likely to drive for a living than women. If you’re a truck driver, a cab driver, or snow plow driver, you are more likely to speed and take chances than if you’re a mom driving to school to pick up the kids.

Also, men are three times more likely to be ticketed than women. That skews the claim that men are more likely to drive drunk–that might be true or it could be that men are more likely to be arrested and ticketed for driving drunk, just as they are more likely to be ticketed for speeding and other traffic offenses.

My local eway is 70 mph posted. I set my cruise on 70 right on the button and drive in the right lane so as to not impede faster traffic. I can do a count any time of day any day of the week. Women always out number the men when speeding. Women drive more expensive autos than men. Women use their cell phones more than men. Women cut you off more than men. Women pass on the right more than men. Women leave their blinkers on more than men. Women ride their brakes more than men. Women sit at a green light longer than men. Women are quicker to give you the finger. Thats MY take, like or not! I am 58 and absolutely know what I am talking about.

I guess it depends on where you live… lol. I never pay attention to who the bad drivers are. I know I never use cell phones in my car, I hate it when people do that. And I HATE it when people cut me off, or turn in front of me without using their turning signal.
Most men I know are more likely to drive faster, BUT I have a friend and a cousin (both female) who are speed demons!

With the point that women get less tickets it definitely would skew the stats. Also they were citing a statistic saying that women are less likely to die in a wreck? Could it be because they drive better vehicles? Drive less? Don’t drive at night like alot of professional drivers? Just throwing things out but there are alot of things that may cause this.

As another writer once stated, many reasearchers seem to be under the impression that correlation is causation in today’s society. How many times have we seen a study (usually socialogical) that sites a bunch of info on something and claims that since this all happens at the same time as this other thing, then that is the cause… The old adage is correlation isn’t causation.

So men die more often in wrecks then women, does that mean we are worse drivers, or that something in the building of cars doesn’t protect us properly?

This is typical of articles on this subject, in that they are all tendentious. FACT: for every million miles driven, women are involved in significantly more accidents. And, yes, I could produce the stats. The reason why men are involved in more accidents overall is that they drive significantly more.

I hate these propagandists.

Torq, you’re right. AS IS EVERYONE WHO TAKES INTO ACCOUNT WHO DRIVES MORE. Thus the skewed data.

God, common sense is so lacking these days…

And propaganda is everywhere…

Anymore, I’m always suspicious of these “scientific studies” because they always shape the terms and the data to the conclusion that “women are better.” Once they’ve reached that conclusion, the study is over. They then publish it to the hooplah of the feminist press.

No one looks carefully at the study. When they do, they discover how the study did not consider alternative explanations.

For example, when I was married, I always drove in the snow/ice/rain–not my wife. I drove because I was a better driver in the snow and ice than she was. Guess what? Driving in the snow and rain is more dangerous than driving on dry pavement, increasing the likelihood I would have an accident. I’m thus statistically a more dangerous driver than she is, which proves I’m another evil, rotten male who speeds too much and takes more risks.
