Ah China, how I love thee.

a shopping centre in china's hebei province has built a car park with wider spaces that it says is designed especially to suit women drivers.
The women-only car park in shijiazhuang city is also painted in pink and light purple to appeal to female tastes.

Official wang zheng told afp news agency the car park was meant to cater to women's "strong sense of colour and different sense of distance".

The parking bays are one metre (3ft) wider than normal spaces, he said.
The wanxiang-tiancheng shopping centre had also "installed signs and security monitoring equipment that corresponded more to women's needs", he said.

The global times website says female parking attendants have been trained to help guide women drivers into their parking spaces. The bays also have extra lighting.
Driving in china is a dangerous activity, with more than 200 deaths in road accidents each day last year, afp reports, citing police statistics.

I'd like to see what this consists of; "installed signs and security monitoring equipment that corresponded more to women's needs" good news though, less people will die as a result of it I'm sure.

And yet women get cheaper insurance. Something tells me the money men have their facts straight and men are the worse drivers.

Anyone who has seen a woman pushing a shopping trolley around a supermarket knows exactly how they'll be in a car.

In my experience the majority of people. irrespective of gender, are clueless prats with their trolleys.

I like following people round and dropping random things into their trolleys while they arent looking.

i see no issue with that, they usually drive more responsibly then we do. so obviously they should be rewarded for it.

Yeah, it's all shits and giggles, but then you try and bring in just a few lousy kilo's of heroin and all hell breaks loose!
