women drivers

I'm not sexist but in the space of 30 seconds today, 3 women drivers really made me shake my head in amazement

two x 2 lane carriageway, with standing traffic on the left side, but in lane 2 a wagon has broke down and has his hazards on......I'll come back to this

an ambo on a shout approaches from behind and crosses the centre line to pass the traffic......at the lights is a 90 degree bend to the left and a van comes around that bend and pulls over to lane 1 to allow the ambo through who's in lane 2 but going against the flow

a woman decides to overtake the van even though she must've seen/heard the ambo. The ambo holds position as he has nowhere to go (+ on a shout) and the woman in the car takes evasive action at the last minute......

I look across at the broken down wagon and two female drivers are now sat in lane 2 behind him, traffic moves in lane 1 and they're left sitting behind him whilst the rest of lane 2 changes to lane 1 to progress

even my dog was shaking his head at the 3 women

may its the beer but I could not follow ANY of that. I would say though about women drivers that gets my goat - every traffic light they come to they are flicking their hair or looking in the mirror at them selves - maybe the hair flicking is the unconscious picking of nose that fellas do, but it does make me think they are not really concentrating on the road constantly fidgeting.

I reckon you may be misinterpreting the signs me old mucker!
They're not looking at themselves......they've suddenly seen some knight in shining body armour on some gleaming black steed, thinking "Wow, look at that bad boy!"  :b
