I never imagined any specific race would be singled out so much. It's almost weird.

I tried to round out the list as much as possible, but no one's ever going to fit everyone into 10 lines. lol

dd3953: This is about people who can't drive for shit under normal circumstances, let alone while impaired.

jorgelito: being the demographic that gets into the most accidents doesn't prove they're the worst drivers- especially when talking about young males. The reason young males' accident rates are so high are the obvious things- racing, driving recklessly because of another car (playing chicken, shit like that), showing off to friends, etc. These displays and temporary losses of sanity while behind the wheel don't prove they're bad drivers in general- it proves they're influenced by all the testosterone in their body and they do stupid shit from time to time.

When you look at those accidents, you see things like racing, extremely high speeds (showing off in their car), ALCOHOL (which makes them moron assholes, not bad drivers), and reckless driving pretty much always having to do with multiple people in the car, or another car involved with people the person knows. That's not "bad" driving in general, that's male teenager bad judgment.

I'll go ahead and be honest, fearing certain death by firing squad- because even though it's been mentioned once in here, I have a feeling I will feel the wrath of my words to follow.

Female drivers, in general, scare the shit out of me. In general, based solely on extensive experience on the road, both local and distance highway, women on the road scare me. In general, I put them in the "worst drivers" category. I guarantee 9 times out of 10, there's a woman behind the wheel of the car that just almost merged into me, changed lanes without looking and almost hit me, cuts me off because they change lanes too quickly after passing me, etc.

I also agree with mixedmedia that they are the most rude/inconsiderate people on the road, and just about the most flippant as well. If they cut you off or almost hit you because they don't look before changing lanes, they look like they could care less when you pass them, like they don't care they just did that- OR they're giving you dirty lookes/obviously gesturing or cursing at you because... I guess you had the audacity to hit your horn when they almost drove you off the road or into oncoming traffic.

Again, this has just been my extensive and overwhelming experience on the road.
