 On their official microblog account, police identify what they regard as common driving mistakes among women.

They include a lack of sense of direction, forgetting to release the handbrake while driving and failing to change gear.

Interesting reading so read it in full......

Are there many Sheilas on this site then?  :Drive: :fingers: Come on ladies, show us how you change gears using ye olde double clutch method on the crash gearbox with no syncromesh. :whistler: :-[ 

I learnt to drive when I was aged 18 or so in the Australian Army Reserve, driving 8 wheeled WW2 Studebaker trucks, the Yanks had left in OZ after the war, their transmission was as described above, crash gearbox, no syncromesh.   No silky smooth 6 speed i30 gear box. :blubber:
