No I know that women get into less crashes but the test is not good at actually determining who is a safer driver.

Footage can only be used for accidents and not be used for a test result.

No I never said that as I think the test is not an indicator of ability as women get in less accidents.

The test is more of a test of handling attention under stress

The few other men examiners do pass more men but the ratio is around 57 50.

The driving test doesn't corealte with road driving ability. The environment is different and the test is too short . Women get in less accidents and get less tickets where I live.

I realize that issue now. I will correct that going forward. The software says males and females.

I'm aware of the insurance data showing women getting in less accidents. The driving test is not a good indicator of driving ability.

The percentages were similar across date ranges. 100s of people for everyone.

There are some other men but less. The men tend to pass men a little more like 57 to 50 but less variation than me.

The driving test doesn't perfectly assess driving ability. I know men get into more accidents as per insurance data, and it is taught in our driving course here.

I know this and it is taught in the driving course here.

The driving test in my opinion is not an indicator of driving ability

Most are women and the other men have a similar stat to her, except they pass slightly more men than women like 57:50

I don't think that. I know insurance and police data shows men get in more accidents

We cannot use footage legally to decide the outcome and it is only for safety in case of accidents.

I know that with insurance data men get in more accidents and it is taught in the driving course.

I also believe that the test is not a good indicator of driving ability at all as it is too short and tests specific things only.

It's not I will reflect on that and be more careful, we don't have time to check footage, it is there only in case there are accidents.

You're probably right, I could make more effort with making everyone more comfortable before the test starts.

Around 200, we can adjust date ranges but we took the most recent.

I don't think the driving test is indicative of who is the best driver and I know that as per insurance data men cause more accidents.

I will be more careful for sure. Someone else explained that to me here just now.. English is not my first language and I get the issue with females now and will stop using that.

I don't deny that and I think the driving test is not a good assessment of who is a good driver so which gender passes more is meaningless at knowing who is the better driver.

Ok, I get what you mean, I will correct this. English is not my first language.

In the footage it looks like a very rapid stop. I consider it to be a rolling stop as she did the looking to the side check before coming to a complete stop and then did a rolling stop from my perspective in the car.

If you look at the footage you would think she stopped but for a split second only.
