I think it all boils down to style. I've run into a lot of poor drivers, men and women, but when it comes down to it, men drive with a certain style, and women with another. Both expect others to use their style and thus when you mix the sexes on the road, you've got conflicts of style.
However, I did once speak with a semi-driver who said young women/girls caused more semi to car accidents than anyone else. He near everytime he'd been cut off by a car who would then slam on the brakes right in front of him it was a young female.
My mother is a whole other problem...she sees herself as a pristine driver because she holds to way over-the-edge ultra-defensive driving methods. Problem is, she's so caught up being defensive and staring at what everyone else is doing she loses track of what she's doing and almost causes accidents herself...don't try and explain that to her though, she's perfect...
