    Now girls, DO NOT rise to the bait!!! It's just not worth it.

    There have been a few occasions when unknown male drivers have passed comments about my driving, when, incidently, I haven't done anything wrong.

    Now, would comments have been made if I was a 6ft male build like the side of a house?? I don't think so!!

    I'm with you on this Pheebs....... much, much, too easy to bite!

    and besides, any reply I made for and on behalf of my fellow lady drivers would probably be deleted by the Mods :wink:

    Why? You can only go one way around it. I prefer drivers to indicate when they leave the roundabout. It's not just women either.
    Ah Delboy!!!
    Thankyou for your non-sexist approach :)

    Hi

    I passed my driving test in 12 lessons. After I did that I did an advanced test, then did a skid test at Brands Hatch.

    I got a certifcate for the advanced, which enabled me to be a driving instructor.

    How many of you men got that.

    Yes I do see some bad drivers, some women, but on the whole it is men who cannot decide what road they want to turn down.

    I see, but do no longer drive but I do watch and see the driving. It's the men in the Porche who cannot indicate, neither which exit on the rounabout.

    It was a man who hit my brand new car and the damage went was from the passenger side all the way from the boot to the headlight.

    He could not got wait whilst I was indicating to turn right. He ended up with a huge bill.

    He had tried to overtake when there was no room to do that.

    Again another man driver went into the back of me. I was stationary with the handbreak on. He was was trying light a cigarette.

    I have to confess that I had to have 36 driving lessons,and my instructor got to the end of his tether with me, but then I surprised everyone, including myself, when I passed my test 1st time.

    I am not a natural driver, and have a dislike of motorways. I think men often drive too fast, and are more likely to take risks than women in general.

    as a girl who can not drive does not have a car but does have to cross the street please all drivers give us walkers a chance can not jump out of the way these days. i do not mind drivers, but what gets me going is dissabled drivers who park on the padestrian area get out of there car and into there wheel chair why can they not use the parking areas provided two min down the road if the r using there electric wheel chairs any way, they do not need to be right out side the door of the shop and why do they drive down the pedestrian area as though any one walking there are the ones in the wrong not them manners cost nothing and waiting a couple of min when sat in there nice warm car is no hard ship. so please think of others it does not take much and cost u nothing .

    Hi Valval,

    I had an experience with a wheelchair user when I was in a shop. I had paid for my goods, said thanks to the shop assistant, turned round and immediately fell over a wheelchair, complete with occupant.

    The user had parked right beside me, and because of the noise of other shoppers and music playing, I didn't hear her. My arms were flapping around as I tried to keep my balance, and I ended up with my face right next to her's and my hands in her lap. If I hadn;t done this I'd have banged my face on the arm of the chair.

    I got nothing but verbal abuse about not paying attention and was told I should be more considerate towards wheelchair users!! I limped away complete with bruised shins and a painful knee. Kept my trap shut because if I'd had a go at her I probably would have been lynched.

    Anyway, like road users, there's good and bad wheelchair users.

    I love the way some ladies said they wouldn't bite... and then replied to this anyway... like me :-)

    54 lessons and 4 driving tests (I failed one because I drove on the wrong side of the road). If I had to take the written tests, I would probably still be learning.

    I like to think I'm a good driver, but then does anyone actually admit to being a cr@p one?!

    Well, I'm nothing if not honest. I can park though - it bugs me when people can't! Got to share this story with you. When my eldest was a toddler, she spent the day with my sister who told me off when I got home for swearing in front of her. I asked how she knew.

    She told me that Ellen had said to her "If we're in the car and another car is naughty, you have to call them a w@nker". And she was completely serious!
