Best Drivers

[sweet angel]

Men feel more comfortable handling their vehicles at higher rates of speed, and can actually maintain control of the vehicle at those speeds better.

Just because one feels "more comfortable" does not mean one is adept at it. That being said, I agree that driving slow is also a problem and I agree with Jimmy that the old farts are a huge problem. I won't ride in the car with my father (late 60s) because he'll do 55 in a 65 and complain that everyone else is "flying".

Several of the responses have interpreted the article to say that women drive "slow" -- it doesn't say that. It says they exceed the speed limit less frequently.

I personally don't buy the idea that one gender over the other are better drivers. Just like in everything else, there are good and bad within each.
