My wife is not a good driver and she'd readily admit that. She's gotten better as she's gotten older. She just drives more conservatively now.

Nope. My car insurance tripled when she joined it after we got married.
Luckily, she only drives about 10 miles a week so wreck chances are minimal.

My wife is probably a better driver than me but she barks at everyone on the road.

My wife is subpar driver, who gets progressively worse when she’s angry.
But that doesn’t stop her from chirping at me the whole time I’m driving. “Watch that car!”, “They’re stopping!”, “There’s a person trying to cross!”
Pounding on my last nerve.

No. Every car she's owned since we've been together have been wrecked. The last one wasn't her fault though. But still, shes a terrible driver. How do you manage to back into shite with back up cameras and parking sensors is beyond me.

Meh, she works a clutch well…but overall, B…takes turns too wide in town and doesn’t have good anticipation on the highway. I bought her the safest vehicle I could…and in the last 20 years she’s only hit a deer.

My wife is a very good driver, but her weakness is urban freeways and not being defensive when she changes lanes. She is the best parallel parker I’ve ever known.

She’s an excellent driver except for scraping parking blocks or curbs with the lower part of the bumper. .

Yes but she's a better navigator.

She is for the most part. She drives mostly the way I do (fast) and doesn't wreck. Invariably tho, her cars end up w more scrapes and scratches than mine do. She does tend to hang the passenger side front tire off the pavement and blow tires, but she knows how to change it.
But in general she's hard on equipment, don't know how many deck wheels she broke off our Kubota lawn tractor as she just goes flat out. I've since upgraded to an Ariens 60 zero turn, she's not allowed to touch it.

My recent ex wasn't a horrible driver.
What I did learn though, is some people only look at the car in front of them instead of looking way ahead.

No. She's a danger to everyone.

No No No, scary bad. She tailgates relentlessly, zero defensive skills, has a wreck about every 3 years that I pay for because if I reported it all to insurance, we would be assigned risk.
Unfortunately, I had a fall and my injuries mean she has to drive except for a few short local trips. Her friends refuse to ride with her, she is over 70 and thinks she has the same reflexes she did when she was 18.
If we get on the Interstate she spends more time in the left lane than Nancy Pelosi, she won't move over until someone gets behind her and starts honking.
I pray self-driving cars are affordable before she kills us both.

Of course not. Neither is my oldest daughter. You would think that they were Asian.

No and she knows it. Her depth perception is off. She will not even attempt to park in tight spaces. In stressful situations she panics and gets tunnel vision.
The only time she drives when I’m in the vehicle is when it’s a long road trip and all interstate. That’s her preference.

My wife, RIP, could drive the heck out of a manual transmission. She had a heavy foot and also wore out some brakes too. She never had an accident and God took her home way too soon.
She loved her WHITE, Nissan 5sp 300zx before we had kids.
