Men's irritating habits revealed by women's car insurance
A UK women's car insurance company has found that men's motoring habits drive the majority of ladies potty.
90% of female drivers reported to Diamond that men had irritating driving habits, with speeding and having a short fuse being the most annoying male traits.
Further, men don't even have to be behind the wheel for ladies to start getting annoyed with them, according to the women's car insurance provider's research.
Two thirds of ladies said that they got irritated with their male passengers, especially those who criticised their driving skills, those who tried to give directions when they already knew the way, and those who change the radio station or CD.
When Diamond got men's opinions on women drivers, they discovered that though they didn't get as bothered by female drivers' habits, a lack of courtesy was the most irritating tendency.
A spokesperson for the ladies' cheap car insurance company said: "The old stereotype that men are always criticising women's driving has been turned on its heads by these results, as it's definitely women who get the most irritated.
"However, the results do show something that isn't a surprise - men think they have less irritating driving habits than women."
