How Men And Women Take Road Trips

We all know that men and women drive differently, but it’s amazing how men and women take road trips differently.

Well at least stereotypically they do, meaning that not all men are good drivers and of course not all women are bad drivers either but they way in which men and women think is often so totally different..

And both men and women love to go on a road trip. But here is where the big difference lies, because of the different ways that men and women’s brains work.

Men like to believe that they are the better drivers, and know where they are going, and will set off on a road trip without a lot of planning, winging it if something goes wrong or if they forgot something.

Women on the other hand, are far more likely to ask for help if something unexpected happens.

So, here in a nutshell, is how men and women stereotypically differ when they take a road trip.
