It’s a thorny subject, so it is probably just as well it was a female scientist who confirmed that men are better at parking than women. Men were typically five per cent more competent at parallel parking – where the car draws alongside anther vehicle before reversing into a bay – according to research. They were also better at driving head-on into a space and then reversing into place. During the tests, in which volunteers were asked to repeatedly park a saloon car, psychologists found women didn’t benefit from the extra 20 seconds they took to complete the manoeuvres on average. In fact, they tended to end up much closer to the edge of the bays than the male drivers, despite showing far more caution. More
