Women motorists involved in more road accidents

Women motorists are involved in more road accidents than men, but the damage is much lower in their cases, according to the latest industry reports.

"Most men drive faster and they are less careful than women, which means the guys are more dangerous on the road. Women drivers have higher safety awareness."

Wang Yanjun, teacher in Changchun, Jilin province

"Men get angry easily and many are involved in road rage. But women can be too careful and nervous, which can also be dangerous."

Su Wenqiang, driver in Quanzhou, Fujian province

"Men possess better driving skills than women. I've heard many jokes about female drivers."

Zhang Mengqi, reporter in Shijiazhuang, Hebei province

"I have many female friends who have a bad sense of direction and cannot use maps. But they have their good habits. They drive carefully and are seldom involved in drunken driving."
