SOME MEN MAY not agree, but women are among the safest drivers in Barbados.

Following a recent road rage incident between a male motorcyclist and a driver, Barbados Road Safety Association (BRSA) president Sharmaine Roland-Bowen says she believes men could learn a thing or two about driving from females.

During an awards ceremony at the BRSA’s headquarters at Rendezvous, Christ Church, Nattalie Mayers became the recipient of an award from the organisation for driving accident-free the last 50 years.

The 75-year-old St George resident attributed her clean driving record to not just prayer, but patience and caution while driving.

“One of the things I do before I get into my car is pray and thank God for His mercy. I don’t drive slow, wherever I have to go, I get there as safely as possible and as quickly as possible,” Mayers said. (AD)
