Snoopy, you are posting a severe generalisation. Women are not poor drivers compared to men. Women are just as capable as men when it comes to driving. Women have similar success rates in the Air Force when it comes to piloting planes, somehow I doubt that driving a car is more difficult.

"They" tend to panic more. Who? Women. Another generalisation. I know plenty of women who are confident in themselves and react well under sudden pressure. Women are paramedics, and the stress of responding to a call is a bit more than driving as well.

Now, it is a well known fact that on average, men have more upper body strength than women. It is also known that Women have a lower center of gravity than men. These are physical differences that are proven when considering the average. There are exceptions though as well.

Now, some state that Men are smarter because of a larger brain. If so, how does it affect people of a smaller build. Just as there are tall men, there are tall women. I have met several women who are tall and small. A parent of one of the children I teach is 6' 4" tall. I'm 5' 11". She has 5" on me. One of my friends, is 5' 5" and he's a guy, but he's not less intelligent because of his size.

I don't like stereotypes at all. For all your vaunted experience Snoopy you come off as ignorant because you are taking a few extreme examples of women and grouping all women into the same category.
