People who drive used Audi models in New Jersey may be interested in a new study that suggests that male drivers are better at parking than female drivers.
During the tests, in which 65 men and women were asked to park an Audi A6 in several different situations, psychologists found that women on average took 20 seconds longer and parked less accurately than men.
Lead researcher Claudia Wolf from Ruhr University in Germany said that the study confirmed previous findings that men have better spatial awareness and more coordination then women, according to the Telegraph.
“These prejudices exist and as a scientist I decided the find out if they are true or based on myth,” she said on Sunday, quoted by the Daily Mail.
“I don’t think that feminism or the cause of women is in any way set back by these findings,” Wolf added. “It only proves what previous studies about the spatial differences between men and women have shown.”
Wolf, a biopsychology student from the university, said that she took on the study because of all the chauvinistic comments that she had heard about women drivers.
Used Audi models in New Jersey may attract additional attention after this revealing study.
