Why do women sit on the steering wheel whilst driving .?

its a wonder they dont crash! women drivers are virtually kissing the steeering wheel its a joke .

Answers:
Ha ha, i do because i cant reach the pedals unless the seat is pulled right up or see over the bonnet if i dont lean over the wheel. Maybe the women you see arent very big either, or they see you coming and do it to wind you up!
lol i don't drive like that
it tends to be an older thing, my 23yr old fiance sits miles away from it
I don't drive that close to the steering wheel.
Not me I relax all the way back, no need for hugging!
I have only seen real young girls and old women do that. I think they feel more safe that way maybe
do women drive like that??!!,wow thats a first!!!
Is your woman stupid? I don't do that.
I've seen men and women doing it. If the air bag goes off it could kill them
You have some serious issues fella. Maybe you never got laid as a teenager.
Maybe because they are generally smaller, and have to lean forward to see what is directly in front of them?!?! I don't know but my Aunt does, and it is a little unreassuring at the least, she does seem as if she is trying to look over the front of the car I think!
They're trying to keep close to the horn.
it's a height/leg length issue if they do.women are more likely to be petite and thus have to move the seat farther forward to be able to safely and comfortably reach the pedals. this is also the reason it is permissible for those under 5'2" to disable the airbags, as being so close to the wheel could cause serious harm during airbag deployment.
It's a confidence thing
They think that the airbag is an accessory, and like all bags, they like to keep them close
Yes, like Scoop, I am rather short, so have to have the seat as far forward as possible so that I can reach the pedals and see out. I sometimes wonder what would happen if my air bag goes off tho'..
WOW.bit early in the morning to be stereotyping aint it? Women have less accidents than men.hence the cheaper car insurance!
I have no choice. If I didn't have the seat pulled right forward, I wouldn't be able to reach the pedals, being small. However, I do pull the back of the seat into a slight recline so that I am NOT sitting on the steering wheel!
I like to sit in an upright positon while i am driving and because of the way some seats are designed it puts me pretty close too the steering wheel.
also my hight plays a factor too cause i am short so i have to bring my seat up closer for my legs to reach the pedals.
Certain guy's are looking TROUGH the steering wheel,that is equally strange ! But I think it's only small people that should have a booster seat .
To view what is there to be viewed and make fun out of it. :o)
how close to the driving wheel you are depends on the length of your legs!
So the spokes rub their nipples and give them a thrill.
