Women are better at parking than men

Women are better than men when it comes to parking, a recent survey found, reversing the existing idea that men have better spatial awareness.

The report by a car parking operator in the United Kingdom studied the parking habits of 450 drivers through CCTV footage and surveyed 2000 more to find that women drivers received 13.5 out of 20 for “parking coefficiency,” compared with 12.3 for their male counterparts.

The study looked into technique, accuracy and time taken to park. The study revealed that women drivers are also better at finding parking spaces than men.

“Perhaps women drivers deserve more credit than they are used to getting,” said Neil Beeson, a professional driving instructor who devised the experiment.
