Women at the wheel? For insurance, a guarantee!

Here's another myth crumbles: Women at the wheel, it rhymes with constant danger, but, indeed, with constant security! And to say this is just one of the leading insurance agencies, which drafted a report on the number of car accidents on the basis of "gender" and whether caused by men or women. And guess which is the main cause of road accidents caused by boys? Of course, distraction.

In fact, according to the survey, more than one male person over 10, admits to having caused an accident for being distracted, by contrast, only one woman in 20 said the same. So, we girls have a more careful and prudent driving of boys, and besides, there was no need for these statistics say.

However, further sifting through the data from this research Insurance Agency, we find that among the causes of inattention men are in first place those hi-tch. 76% of male respondents, she said that she distracted driving to fix the radio and half by choosing the music CD to be inserted.

Of course could not miss the phone, a quarter of men admitted to having caused the accident while talking on the phone, knowing full well that he was risking. Again, two thirds of the sample was eating or drinking at the moment of impact and other variables percentages were busy in activities like: read the paper, place the navigator, kiss your partner.

And the women ... how distracted at the wheel? It is not distracting, at least, settle the lipstick looking in the mirror ... but only when the traffic light is red. Righteous!
