Test management and gender equality

In the United Kingdom is 62 million and 31 million cars. Many people actually possesses more than one car, so that most people do not have exclusive access to a car, something more, 20% of all households in the u. K (1 of 5) your car at all. So that more than half of our population do not have a car and a large 42% cannot even drive.

Because of the driving test began in 1935 nearly 92 million people have taken the test. It is said that the average time spent preparing for the examinations is 14 months! This is an average of 52 hours of professional training, every person, around 1200 to receive its licence to calculating costs. The introduction of the theory test in 1996 increased the cost of obtaining your license further still.

It is examined, that the number of young drivers are rapidly decreased over the past few years, this is partly to actual cost and the joint implementation of the car, as well as the fact that the costs of training have become so expensive. As says, that when the test is introduced in 1935 are 246,000 tests taken and 154,636 of them being actually makes a healthy 63% penetration rate.

During the year 2003-2004 were 1,399,115 tests were taken and 601,619 of them passed returns only 43% pass rate. Today there are many more women drivers on the road, and the difference between the number of men and women drivers is reduced. The data show that during the 1975-1976 there were around 28% of women with full driving licence as compared with around 72% of men. The number of women drivers on the road in 2011 is doubled nearer 50%!

So that women are closing the gap on men, but which he gives? They say that on average, girls need around 21 lesson male trainers will have only 17, but this is because female trainers tend to take more time and make sure that they have learned all they can from their instructor, or it is simply that men are better?

The data show that women are more likely to suffer from nerves, while men are more likely to appear over the trust and are less likely to listen to the instructor in moments! Makes men better drivers because they pass more quickly and at an earlier age? Or really means that women are better, since they take more time? I think men tend to have better control of the car and spatial knowledge, where women tend to be more careful. Although men tend to have better control of the car, their overconfidence combined with testosterone them take more risks, causing to have more work done.

In fact, I don't think anyone can come up with a definitive answer for who are the best drivers, both women careful nature makes them avoid dangerous situations, but men tend to have better control of the car, but take more risks. The closest I think everyone can get to is that men are more cunning, but women are safer.
