Women drivers ?

I'm in the middle of the road signalling to turn right, . . there are 3 cars coming towards me, . . all are being driven by women and each one of them had a mobile phone stuck to it's ear.

It was a busy junction too but they didn't care if they caused an accident or even killed someone, . . they just had to use the phone, . . the penalty point system is not working, . . it's time they were banned like drunk drivers are, . . they're more dangerous than drunks IMO.

Re: Women drivers ?

Men are far worse when it comes to mobile phones imo. White van drivers are the worst of all!

Re: Women drivers ?

Must admit this really infuriates me and I am a woman driver.

Round here the men are as bad as the women.

Re: Women drivers ?

Our local bus drivers are the worst for using their mobiles whilst driving the buses! I have seen a few women drivers though using mobiles!

Re: Women drivers ?

Did anyone see the story of the lady in USA who caused a pile up while she was shaving her bikini line? She was going to meet her boyfriend and ex husband was holding the wheel!

Unbelievable

Re: Women drivers ?

Being on the phone whilst driving is illegal here in Washington, but many many do it, and you rarely see citations being given out.Too many drivers, not enough police to enforce it.

Must have been a brazilian.

I have to say there does seem to be just as many men as women who use the phone while driving. No amount of television campaigns seem to do any good.

I also have to say that I know one extremely good lady driver. She's sitting very close to me and she'll bash me if she notices I'm writing anything else.
