Women park better than men

Some male drivers may still believe the myth that they are in some way superior to their female counterparts, but a new study has revealed that women are better at parking their vehicles.

This revelation was made by the Car Park Operator NEP. After a thorough study it concluded that although women take a relatively long time to park, they have comparatively less trouble aligning their vehicles in a space.

Men are apparently more interested in showing their prowess by parking in tight spots when accompanied by female drivers, than in showing consideration for their fellow motorists by leaving space between car doors.

A celebrity driving instructor said, “I was quite surprised by the result, because in my experience men have always been the best learners and usually performed better in lessons.

“However, it's possible that women retain the information better. The report shows the need to give our partners more respect when it comes to parking.”

These findings add weight to the claim that women are more thoughtful and therefore more deserving of cheap car insurance than the opposite sex.

Unfortunately this is unlikely to have an impact on the upcoming insurance updates, set to bring the amount that men and women pay for cover into balance.
