Mary Williams, chief executive, of the road safety charity Brake, said: "The Government should place more emphasis on changing men's attitudes to driving and improving their safety skills, through advertising in mediums such as men's magazines and through education in the workplace.
行車安全慈善機構Brake的主管瑪麗·威廉姆斯說：“政府應該多加重視通過在男性雜志等媒體做廣告、在工作場所宣傳教育等方式改變男性駕車態度、提高他們安全行車技能。
Particular concerns are excessive speed, high-risk manoeuvres such as overtaking dangerously, and driving when tired."
特別要關注超速行駛以及類似危險超車和疲勞駕駛等高風險駕駛行為。”
Steve Stradling, Professor of Transport Psychology at Napier University, Edinburgh, said: "A key factor is that women get less fun out of risk-taking.People speed because they are under pressure, and women have different patterns of obligations. Men are more likely to speed to make a business appointment."
愛丁堡納皮爾大學的運輸心理學教授史蒂夫·斯特拉德林說：“其中一個關鍵因素是女性不太熱衷于冒險。人們往往在壓力下會超速行使，而女性承擔著不同形式的責任。男性超速行駛很可能是為了趕赴生意上的約會。”
In a survey for the Scottish Executive, Professor Stradling found that 82 per cent of women approved of speed cameras, compared with 68 per cent of men; 45 per cent of women believed that motorway speed limits should never be broken, compared with 30 per cent of men.
在一項為蘇格蘭行政院進行的調查中，斯特拉德林教授發現：82%的女性贊同使用高速照相機，而只有68%的男性表示贊同。45%的女性認為高速公路的速度限制決不應該被打破，而只有30%的男性這樣認為。
Nearly two thirds of men drive cars with an engine bigger than 1.6 litres, compared with 42 per cent of women.
將近三分之二男性的車的發動機超過1.6升，而女性只有42%。
Women are also less likely to be members of the groups that campaign for an increase in speed limits.
而且，在呼吁提高限速的人群中也鮮有女性。
