City Driving

Now, I don't want to seem sexist (although I am a woman) but some women just CANNOT seem to drive. Just the other day I was driving in downtown Montreal when at one red light a car crosses three lanes horizontally (to turn right) and almost hits me. As I honk and detour around the car I see it's a woman. Then, on the very next street, there's a car driving about 5km per hour in front of me. I'm not one for patience but I kept calm, figuring they were looking for a parking spot, right? WRONG! I don't know WTF this car was doing but as I detoured around it I saw that, yet again, another female driver.

I understand that driving in the city can be stressful - I get that, but seriously!? I'm starting to think that Montreal should implement a merit system when it come to city driving. In order to be allowed to drive, one should have to pass an "obstacle" driving test consisting of dodging pedestrians, knowing your way around, and parallel parking. If you fail - NO ENTRY!!
