Accidents
Now while anyone could be in need of a touch up after a fender bender or windshield repair after a minor accident, it looks like men do in fact have more accidents than women. Men get in more accidents than women: According to a New York City traffic study, 80% of all auto accidents that kill or seriously injure pedestrians involve male drivers. According to a study by Quality Planning, an insurance statistics company, female drivers were also 27% less likely to be found at fault when involved in an accident. These statistics tend to hold true no matter where you look. According to the United States Department of Transportation and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, men were involved in 6.1 million accidents (40,000 were fatal) in 2007. By comparison, women were only involved in 4.4 million (14,000 were fatal). 4autoinsurancequote.org
