Dubs don't stop for standed famale motorists, says survey
Dubliners are less likely to stop and help a stranded female driver, according to a study conducted by the tyre manufacturer Semperit.
The company said a roadside experiment it conducted found one-in-30 male drivers stopped to help a stranded female change a wheel in a rural area.
This compares to just one-in-70 male motorists who stopped to help the woman in Dublin.
Semperit said the study showed that women could not rely on other motorists and should learn simple car maintenance like how to change a wheel.
