Despite popular belief, a UK study has
proven that female drivers are superior
at parking.
'Women were rated higher for
using an appropriate speed, having a
good "pre-parking pose" to ensure a
successful manoeuvre, and a higher
percentage of female drivers finished
centrally in their chosen parking space –
53 per cent, compared with 25 per cent
of men.'
So next time you find yourself in a tight
spot, make sure there is a female behind
the wheel!

According to a study by
VroomGirls, women are less likely
to be involved in alcohol-related fatal
crashes. Women are also less likely
to be speeding when driving in a fatal
car crash and are less likely to be
involved in drug-related fatal crashes.
