Women are 12% angrier than men when they are driving, but the head of psychology at Birmingham City University sees white male privilege in “the pedestrian equivalent of road rage”.

From my experience, there is no worse driver than a woman. They are also the first to become belligerent and combative, even when they are wrong. It's maddening that the U.K. refuses to address this as fact and instead attacks the men. What is happening in that society and is it reversible?

From the article:

For example, a Manchester mother of two struck another vehicle with a golf club. The female driver of that vehicle struck her in turn with her vehicle, stopped, reversed back, and drove backward and forward over her prone body, eventually killing her². We routinely treat female violence with leniency. She was given a one year prison sentence and ordered to resit her driving licence. The presiding Judge excused the leniency of the sentence on the grounds that the act was, in his view, “not deliberate”.

YOU HAVE TO PUT YOUR CAR IN REVERSE TO BACK UP! YOU HAVE TO PUT IT IN DRIVE TO GO FORWARD! YOU HAVE TO HIT THE BRAKE TO CHANGE GEARS AND THE GAS TO MOVE!

HOW THE FUCK IS THAT NOT DELIBERATE????

Ah! As a guy who rides around Birmingham on a motorcycle, statistically, I've been nearly knocked off the road by more female drivers (3) than male (1).

It's a small pool to use as fact but it's certainly experience

However I also know a few female drivers who are better than their male counterparts..

What I'm trying to say is, I don't care what your gender is, just don't knock me off my bike and we're cool!
