Girl Drivers are Becoming as Aggressive as Boys

Tags: driver

In the last 10 days, we've driven to Florida and back. That's more than 50 hours on the road - (mostly I75) and I have to tell you - there were a lot of aggressive speedsters weaving in and out of traffic along the way!
Surprisingly (to me) at least 50% were teen girls - often with cell phones pressed into the sides of their heads. Most of them were alone and doing 10 to 20 miles over the limit. I watched as they cut off other drivers without ever even looking.

I remember the days when teen boys paid 2 to 3 times more for car insurance than girls because the girls were much more careful drivers. Sadly, that seems to be changing. Insurance rates for girls are getting higher as their crash rates climb.
This is one area where I don't want equality for my daughter.
Have other parents noticed this trend?
What are you doing about it?
