Women are known to be better multi-taskers so maybe they are trying to do too many things while driving cars such as the S. Concentrate on the driving baby. Just a thought.

I wonder, what are the statistics for men. I bet they're not much different.

If I were driving a Fiesta I would probably be trying to wreck it.

It goes to show, you can't put on make up, talk on the cell phone and use a six speed all at the same time.

At least Honda didn't wimp and offer them an auto tranny for the S.

Do you realize that it's WOMEN who are causing all the accidents in S2000's and driving up the insurance rates? Look at that statistic.

Rob's right: this is data from a women-only insurer. Given all the whining about oversteer on S2000 Talk and other forums around here, I'd expect statistics for men to be even worse.

It just goes to show that the S2000 is a dangerous car and should be banned, banned, banned. HPH

But also let's consider how difficult it would be to have a high speed crash in that Fiesta or Peugot 106 . How ever do you get the squirrels to run that fast.

^I'm renting a micro-car in Denver tomorrow, what will be likely the Fiesta follow-on. Out there I think they use prairie dogs. I'll let you know. HPH
