Nearly half of female
car insurance customers have conceded that they have little or no sense of direction.
A survey by Boxby.co.uk found that a quarter of ladies regularly get lost while driving, while more than two thirds relying on a Sat Nav to get them to their destination.
More than 85 per cent of male car insurance customers, meanwhile, believe that their sense of direction is very good, with just 11 per cent seeing room for improvement.
In addition, 72 per cent of males said they would rather drive around until they found their destination rather than stopping and asking for directions, something which three quarters of women find infuriating.
Sandra Patterson, managing director of Boxby.co.uk, said: "I think a lot of it comes down to pride and women being more ready to admit that they aren't the best at finding their way around, but the fact that quite a few said they got lost on a regular basis in their own city was a little surprising."
