Women Drivers/Playing With

Basic Trope: Women do not drive well.

• Straight: Alice is a terrible driver who has no respect for the rules of the road.
• Exaggerated: When Alice is on the road, a state of national emergency is declared.
• Downplayed: Alice isn't a bad driver, but she can't reverse park.
• Justified: Alice has no experience driving.
  • Alice is drunk.
• Inverted: Men are dangerous, reckless drivers while women actually follow the rules of the road.
• Subverted: Bob is terrified of driving with Alice, but it's just his prejudice showing through; she drives perfectly well,
• Double Subverted: ...and as she's gloating about this fact she stops looking at the road, and promptly crashes.
• Parodied: Alice somehow rammed her car into a satellite, thus causing a chain of events that ultimately results in a Zombie Apocalypse.
• Zig Zagged: Male drivers are no better - on average. However, there are a few good male drivers - but the absolute best driver in the world is female.
• Averted: Gender is not a determinant of driving skill.
• Enforced: It's a sitcom playing on gender stereotypes, and this one would be conspicuous by its absence.
• Lampshaded: "How about those wacky woman drivers, eh?"
• Invoked: ???
• Exploited: ???
• Defied: ???
• Discussed: "Alice is driving? Better wear a seatbelt..."
