women turning detectives!
Suddenly, out of the blue, all the women that I know are trying to be Nancy Drew's wannabe sisters!
They all want to be smart and they all want to be right, but unlike Karamchand, they do not want to eat any carrots or get their facts right!
Confused? So am I at the turn of events! Makes me feel like I ate a "really good" mushroom with a bad result :P
(Pls dont ask "what", just be a good listener and poke some fun at my 'misery'! ... lol)

Whos really to blame for accidents - Men or Women!
Angel states the following reasons why she thinks men are bad drivers and women are good drivers. Let me tell you why I beg to differ!
1. About twice as many men as women are killed each year in crashes. Even though Men tend to drive more miles....not twice as much...but just a little more.My Take: The reason for this is simple. Everyone knows that men and women are opposites - and it is the law of nature that, opposites attract. All the men killed in road accidents are therefore being killed by women drivers. Thus, a higher death of males automatically indicates that there are more bad women drivers on the street!
2. More men tend to have the condition Sleep Apnea, and Drivers with this problem are FIVE times more likely to be in an car accident.
My Take: While I am not going to question the authenticity of these facts, it is important to know how these men got sleep problems in the first place. Women Nag! Men who get nagged by women hardly get time to sleep. This is why they get sleep apnea and sleep deprivation. Thus, the real cause of accidents happening due to this reason are women!
3. A National Safety Council analysis found that men account for 81% of all drivers with blood alcohol concentration .08 or greater who are involved in fatal crashes.
My Take: To avoid being nagged, men go out and get drunk. Then they get a call from the woman who asks the poor drunk guy to get home ASAP! This causes men to get in an accident while being drunk. It is completely unfair to blame men for accidents caused from this scenario.
There is also another theory that could very well be true - Women like free drinks and readily accept them from men. Problem is - like their driving, they don't know when to stop! These drunk women then get into cars - and as we know, opposites attract - they go out and kill more men on the road. Some of these now dead men simply happen to have blood alcohol concentration .08 or greater. The important point to note is - the accident was the woman's fault.
4. Men are more likely to speed.
My Take: Men only speed because they are trying not to be late for a date with their GFs or they are trying to keep up with an appointment with their wives! After all, a smart man would any day risk the possibility of an accident over the certainty of being nagged if he is late!
5. The actual number of men killed in car crashes has declined from the year 1997 to 2007 (48/million to 45/million). This decrease can be attributed to *drum roll please* The number of WOMEN driving has increased!!
My Take: I disagree with this reasoning. I think the number of men killed by women in road accidents only decreased because a higher % of women have become lesbians in recent times. According to the theory of "accidents caused due to attraction" - these women would now target other women instead of men. Thus, the number of men being killed has automatically dropped.
Did you know that the rear-view mirror (no pun intended) was invented by a woman? Now this can be a good thing for driving, but it is important to note how it was invented. A woman, who was applying makeup while she was driving, just happened to accidentally see the road behind her. Thus was born the rear-view mirror.
No wonder manufacturers have started putting vanity mirrors behind sun-visors these days!
To further illustrate why women and makeup can be dangerous, I'll tell you a true story.
A truck driver was trying to pass a mini-van on a hilly road.
The driver encountered a plain stretch of road and it was ok for him to pass the van. He starts to pull alongside to make the pass when a hand darts out of the van and signals the truck to stop. The driver gets back into his lane but does not see any vehicles from the opposite side that would make it unsafe for him to pass.
Thinking that he may have missed seeing something, he waits till he comes upon another stretch of open road. As soon as he starts to make the pass, the hand darts out again to stop him. This frustrates the driver a little bit and he starts smoking a cigarette to regain his composure. He awaits another open stretch of road but no sooner than he starts to make the pass, the hand darts out again to stop him. This happens for another 7 times!
The flustered driver follows the mini-van when it pulls up into a parking spot. The truck driver is angry and demands an explanation from the driver of the mini-van and asks why was he signalled 10 times while trying to pass the van on a clear road?
The WOMAN in the van calmly replies - "oh! Did I stop you from overtaking? I was merely drying the nail polish on my fingers!"
Fascinating! Isn't, it! While you are still reading, let me tell you that the use of makeup by women can also cause accidents on the road when women are not driving. How many men reading this have almost been in an accident because they were busy watching a hottie - wearing makeup - on the street! Women go to great lengths to ensure shorter life span of the male species. Men on the other hand don't bother about their appearance too much! This automatically reduces death among women who drive.
Bottomline - Women are unsafe and dangerous - not only inside, outside but also on top of motorised vehicles - and are still the number 1 reasons for causing accidents on the road. But you don't have to take my word for it. Simply see these video and trust your own eyes...
