Yet another essential and world altering survey by an insurance company concludes that men and women disagree which sex is the better when it comes to driving. Actually I think that should have been gender, 'which sex' puts the debate in an entirely different position.
In the survey of 4,000 drivers almost a third of men thought they were the better drivers and intended to prove it by driving very quickly with only one hand on the wheel.
Only five per cent of women agreed and said they would prove they were right by withholding nookie quota until the men saw sense
This is staggering news, considering that around 100 per cent of men and women can’t even decide what colour the sky is most of the time.
And there is no recorded case of men and women even being in the same room when it comes to decorating and 90 per cent of men say the only question they have been asked about a new kitchen is ‘can you pass the cheque book.’
Needless to say science, you know the old global warming boys, is used to prove the conclusion that women make better drivers because they can switch more easily between stimuli. Which, lads, are not a type of bedding plant.
This is down to hormones. And no, she doesn’t want another cup of flaming tea, you moron, my mother was right, that’s all you ever think about, blah, blah,blah.

Latest road accident statistics from the Office for National Statistics show that in 2005 almost 172,000 male car drivers were involved in car accidents in
which someone was injured, compared with just over 93,000 female drivers, proving conclusively that there are still, even in the 21st century, there are too many u
What, in fact there are 100 uninsured statistics about.
What there us 100 percent of is too many of is pointless motoring surveys.
