Are female SUV drivers the most territorial drivers on Irish roads?

    They drive as if they own the freaking road. They will NEVER EVER let somebody from an adjacent lane in front of them. They usually never indicate and their territorial style of parking is atrocious. Their demeanor behind the wheel ain't too pleasant either.

    David Attenborough travels thousands of miles to the savannas of Africa to watch female lionesses, he should come to Ireland to watch the urban Irish female SUV driver in action.

    They don't even need the road.
    They could go cross country in the 4WD.

    What really annoys me is that many of them actually pay feck all motor tax, thanks to our crazy and unfair motor tax system, than me in my "death trap" "polar bear killing" pre '08 modest hatchback.

    Women NEVER let you out full stop

    As a driver of the female variety I agree! They never acknowledge you either when you let them out!

    No, they are for parking up on footpaths and traffic islands.

    Yeah odd the feeling of safety when ploughing through the side of a small car killing everyone inside.

    Colora-d-ooooooooooooo!!!!

    Ah now. Also am a female driver - I think all drivers of SUVs should be made do their driving test again. Bloddy great trucks of cars. Big lump of metal. I hate them nearly as much as I hate white vans.

    Well I was talking to one of them and she said that Irish men are like cars. They always pull out before looking to see if anyone else is coming.

    I was cycling through a small regional town the other day and some sociopath in a POS qaushqui tried to overtake me on a road that was barely wide enough for cars to pass of both sides and then blasted her horn at me and screamed out the window that I "shouldn't be on the ****ing Road on that thing" so I stopped and sat there and let her calm down because traffic coming out of town was jus me and her but traffic into town was a tailback.

    She eventually apologised and admitted she was in the wrong and I let her off to watch expose or Ireland am or whatever the feck was so important.

    That's not true actually

    Luxury SUVs cost 2k a year to tax regardless of emissions

    Careful now.

    Somebody will be along shortly with the extremely biased stat of "women are safer drivers"

    Wait for it...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 67 ✭✭CyrilFiggis


    It's all SUV drivers. They're the worst drivers on the road

    I thought it was BMW drivers of either sex that did all that.

    Followed by Audi drivers. Which is weird for me to admit because I drive an Audi but I notice it from arseholes in A4s all the time.

    The vast majority of them are 2WD, they're too miserable to pay for the extra safety.

    ... or whatever the feck was so important.

    Collect the child from the school she can probably see from her house. Give her one little child a lift home in her massive truck car, of course

    But that's not as fun as saying it's just women.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,440 ✭✭✭The Rape of Lucretia


    No way. No self respecting male BMW 5 series driver would put up with that heinous insult. The road belongs to them. Everyone else, including female SUV drivers, are only barely tolerated guests who should be happy to be allowed drive at all, and never impede a BMW driver.
    This is surely more than just general impression. Is anyone aware of any serious study into the psychology of BMW drivers, and why they think they are superior people to the rest of humanity ?

    They always give you that what were you doing on the road in the first place sour look when you pull in for them...Jesus it wouldn't kill them to raise a hand


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,604 ✭✭✭coffeepls


    BMW drivers are a dying breed these days.

    I drove a Honda CRV for 6 years and my behaviour when driving was always impeccable:)

    Wasn't always so.

    Every single one of them who cannot manage the task of parking their superfluous heap of shíte in a single car space should be clamped. It's infuriating to see these incompetents take up two car spaces in packed car parks.

    My missus drives one,not one of the pretend ones that are everywhere these days thanks to PCP finance but a big,real 4wd. She can actually park it better than the hatchback she used to drive.
    It's the women with the inflated egos and sense of entitlement driving SUVs that are the problem. They'd barely give way to an ambulance let alone anyone else on the road.
