Car driving and women! Much has already been said about this. Facts and statistics are lined up against women drivers. And almost every second person has a negative opinion about the capacity of women as drivers. When my parents wanted me to learn driving and asked me and my sis to a select a car. We gals went for the heart car, Swift dzire 
. For me it was the only car I wanted, I loved it too much since the minute I saw it. As I started canvassing my parents about the dzire, advice came from all unsolicited corners. Some told Alto was the best for gals, a small car is safe. The worst that i heard was “Swift is a fast car, i doubt if a gal will be able to handle it!”. Imagine what they would have thought if they knew i was planning for Swift dzire! Some even sent me links from youtube about woman trying to park her car for half an hour. 
Learning driving was a nice experience. I had gone to Durga driving school in adyar. I was put under every trainer! And each of them told i m confident and bold. maybe it was more of my charms. Frankly i had very little road experience. Nowadays my happiness comes from going rounds in the dzire. And i find driving is a separate world, beautiful and serene. If someone says “i love my car” these days; it makes complete sense to me. It took a good amount of time for me to convince my parents, that I can drive a swift dzire! My driving licence and the car came on the same day! so much of a coincidence! The guy who gave the driving test after me failed!
Just came across this link. Hope it sets somethings right!
Car is just a machine, thankfully it doesn’t have intelligence to differentiate between a man and a woman. Let people not do that, they can’t generalize driving skills based on gender.
