Why did u exclude "ur wife"? $10 she is the one you noticed first? Anyway, I myself do notice it. I guess its about experience, with time they tend to relax a bit while driving, e.g my GF |

They are trying to see the road directly in front of the vehicle but with time, confidence and experience they lean to read the road ahead before they get there and be more relaxed. BTW it is not just limited to female learners alone. 3 Likes |

Women are generally shorter than men in terms of height. To see the road clearly they need to adjust the seat close to the steering. I've seen some short guys do that too. The irony here is women even though they are short like driving larger vehicles like sienna and suv's.That is why u see them adjusting their seats close to the steering. Another thing is men are generally more confident drivers than women especially in Nigeria. In advanced countries men and women are almost equal when it comes to driving. But our women are not just confident enough when behind the wheels. This is why u will hardly see a Nigerian woman doing long distance journey say from Lagos to port Harcourt. In fact I hardly see a woman driving along sagamu Benin highway. In the states, women do drive from New York to California (a 4,000km journey and almost 2 days of driving). 5 Likes |

Just to feel big, most of them do that while driving flashy cars, in addition to that most women try as much as possible to look at the front that is they try looking at the road while driving especially cars with protruding bonnets. |

EconElectronics: At the bolded, where else is a sane person supposed to look while driving? The side? |

which is not very safe and does not aid easy driving, but as beginers their minds being played trick on, for me, its more ideal and safe to have your hands stretch out and stay far from steering to avoid chest contact incase of collision. |
