More ladies than men have a driver's license due to teen disinterest

Today there are more females with their driver's license in our country than males, and contrary to "woman driver" jokes, researchers believe this will result in safer roads. The gender gap reversal behind the wheel is further set to widen, mostly because fewer teen and young adult males are getting their license to drive, according to a study by the University of Michigan. Study co-author Michael Sivak noted that women are more likely to buy safer, smaller, more fuel-efficient cars, drive less and have fewer fatalities per distance driven. Sivak also observed that fewer young 'un's drive in countries with higher Internet usage, so obviously, the young men of America prefer to watch videos of cool cars online, drive them in video games and nag similarly useless friends to come pick them up.
