On women drivers...
My cousin Che has been posting a heap of 'fail' video's on FB. I got hooked and started watching a stack of 'fails' on Youtube and noticed some 'women driver fails'. Yeah yeah, I know women drivers can be amusing, however, I have noticed recently it's not just women drivers, but drivers of small cars in particular, that cause more frustration to the average driver, be they man or woman.
I drive a brick. It's a big red KIA Carnival. It has a limited turning circle, so I tend to reverse into smaller parking spots - I can always manage to park on the first attempt doing it this way.
However, when I drove the little rollerskate aka Mazda 323, I could park without any trouble whatsoever - anywhere, anytime. Without the aid of power steering.
Which brings me to small car drivers. 50% of these drivers should not have a licence! Not only do they pull out to the right side of the road to turn left - as if they are driving a semi trailer, they can take four or five attempts to either park or reverse out of a parking spot. It doesn't seem to matter if they are male or female. They all act as if they are driving a tank, with little or no manoueverability.
And don't get me started on the fact that big, red bricks appear to be invisible on the road...
