Are men more likely to show off (especially when driving)?
Find answers to your legal question.





Are men more likely to show off (especially when driving)?

Is this true?


    




Vince M
Statistically, yes.

This is especially true of young men, between the ages of sixteen and twenty-five. This demographic is responsible for getting the most tickets, getting involved in the most collisions and causing the most injuries and deaths on the road.


Aberdeen Tyke
Yes, and don't they look ridiculous in a one litre Corsa with a big bore exhaust to make it sound faster.

Here's a man who'll admit women are safer drivers.


DamaskDrum
Yes. It has to do with dominance and display, something all male animals are programed to do.

Some males manage to keep that tendency in check, but they all WANT to....

Yes according to the national insurance agency.

Depends on the person, but generally yes.

I am a very safety concious person, and would only drive in a "show off" manner, if there was nobody else with me, or around me, so it would be pointless showing off to myself....

Most teenagers, boys and girls, are more likely to show off when driving. Yes, some men(idiots)do show off.

Yes. It also depends on the person, but the reason why this is true, is because men generally take more risks when driving. Women are naturally more conscious of their surroundings and they are aware of the risks of driving erratically. The reason why this is true is because of our hormones. Men have more testosterone in their bodies which causes an increase in behavior such as driving aggressively. Women have estrogen which does not contribute to aggressive behavior. The difference in hormones is what causes men to take more chances on the road increasing accidents, and that is another reason why insurance is higher for males than women.

Maybe, but to offset that they are less likely to be putting their make up on whilst doing 70 down the motorway.

Hi, I am an ex driving instructor and can guarantee that men do show off a lot more than women. They are also much more aggressive drivers behind the wheel. Women are the better drivers because of this.

yep
