Well that means i'm a year younger than him and, well... it just seems somewhat strange. No offence james

Back on-topic - Insurance companies annoy me greatly by calling women drivers safer. They aren't technically, they're just a whole lot slower!! They have less spatial awareness and they are more prone to panicing behind the wheel. Safety is all about confidence behind the wheel. I guess us males counteract that by wanting to go fast all the time. But isn't that what cars with big engines are made for???

Oh and prizes for who can guess my insurance quote closest... I'm 21, I have a DD on my record, the car is a 1.4 litre 1995 escort, and I have no NCB, or previous insurance record.

I'm guessing around £2k

Probably less so now - many lasses are driving faster than their male peers.

I disagree with the safety/confidence link - I have know many confident drivers who I would not class as safe.  I think safety is all about awareness - most/all accidents are caused by lack of awareness, be it roads conditions, or actions of other people/animals etc...

Yeah, I guess the confidence thing was kind of a moot point if you have no skill Does help though!

Many lasses these days are doing a lot of things normally reserved for males their age. It's disgusting. Look at the drinking statistics ffs!!
