Female drivers being quizzed
WOMEN’S Worldwide Car of the Year panel has launched a survey on how women feel behind the wheel.
The research is led by Sabina Kvášová, a WWCOTY juror in the Czech Republic, and editor-in-chief of the magazine Zena v aute.cz.
Questions include:
What is typical behaviour of women drivers on road?
Do they feel safe?
Does their behaviour vary from country to country?
An online questionnaire has been created.
WWCOTY executive president Marta Garcia said the aim of the survey ‘How women drivers feel behind the wheel’ was to analyse the driving behaviour of women drivers and their perspective in different countries.
“The survey is focused on the perception of aggressive behaviour on the roads,” she said. “It is important to really know what women go through when they drive.
“This research will allow us to get a closer look at situations that sometimes go unnoticed.
“Through a questionnaire we want to analyse how women drivers feel, what they fear, how they behave behind the wheel, and on roads.
“Thanks to the connection to the Women’s Worldwide Car of the Year association, we also want to compare the results of surveys in foreign countries.”
The final result will be published worldwide on International Women Drivers’ Day #IWDD on June 24.
Women’s Worldwide Car of the Year is the only car awards group in the world comprised exclusively of women motoring journalists.
It was created by New Zealand motoring journalist Sandy Myhre in 2009. She is honorary president while Ms García is executive president.
