Abstract
‘Who’s in the driving seat?' found that women and men aren’t so different when it comes to driving behaviours and attitudes. Based on a survey of over 1000 drivers it found that men and women enjoy driving, and rate themselves to be confident, considerate and safe behind the wheel, but almost twice as many men as women claim to be very confident. Both sexes are equally likely to admit to speeding, poor parking behaviour or losing their temper. Driving on motorways or in heavy traffic can be nerve wracking for some women drivers and many remain happy to let their partner fuel and maintain the car and do all the paperwork. (Author/publisher)
