Week2- New Discussion: Who are better drivers, men or women?

Dear all,
I wanted to take the discussion online so that we can carry that on for a little further. The topic was:
Women / men are better drivers.
Here is the ground, speak up your mind. I'll start first, here is what I think, backed up with some statistics:

Those who think women are good drivers, here is some statistics from a report in the US, which says the rate of accidents involving female motorists increased 14 percent in the last 30 years, while there has been a 11 percent decline in the accidents in which male drivers were involved. How about that? And the same study argues that more and more women today are driving agressively and show road rage. I think the gap is closing between male and female drivers in bad driving behavior!...

Women… strange creatures. They can be perfect for many things but ı dont think that they are actually good at driving. There are many reasons about this situation, for instance gender.. as we know gender also effects driving habits. Maybe because women are so sensitive and coward, they can not think what have to be done in emergency situations or they cant behave courageously, which makes things much worse. And nowadays we can clearly see that women also use alcohol while driving and even do many things wrong. Another reason for this is stamina. Women are more sensitive than men and that’ s why they cant bear long miles. There are many reasons about that topic and this shows us that men are much better than women but at driving (:
