History PlayingWith / WomenDrivers

** Alice somehow rammed her car into a satellite, [[DisasterDominoes causing a chain of events that ultimately results in a]] ZombieApocalypse.

** Alice lives in a barely-reformed former NoWomansLand where women were formerly banned from driving; chauvanistic male instructors don't bother to train women drivers properly since they don't see why they should, whilst examiners are under government pressure to pass as many women as possible in order to look good internationally and so lower the bar for passing tests.

** Alice somehow rammed her car into a satellite thus [[ForWantOfANail causing a chain of events that ultimately results in a]] ZombieApocalypse.

* '''Zig Zagged''': Male drivers are no better - on average. However, there are a few good male drivers - but the [[BadassDriver absolute best driver]] in the world is a female. But she still tends to forget that the average drive down Route 66 ''isn't'' supposed to be a reenactment of ''Film/TheGumballRally''.
* '''Averted''': Gender is not a determinant of driving skill.

* '''Defied''': After Alice is old enough to start taking driving lessons, she takes them under a former F1 Racer, over the course of a year or two.

* '''Implied''': One of the first things Bob notices about the car used for the driving course Alice is taking is the massive sign on the roof that reads: "WARNING -- WOMAN STUDENT DRIVER AT THE WHEEL -- EXTREME DANGER". Bob [[ValuesDissonance questions how overtly sexist the sign is]] until [[AnotherMansTerror he sees how Alice drives]].

* '''Plotted A Good Waste''': The whole discussion about Alice being a crappy driver because she's a woman is a DebateAndSwitch. Turns out that the reason Alice is a crappy driver is because [[MushroomSamba she is stoned out of her damn mind literally all day long]] and anybody would be a shit driver under ''those'' conditions.
* '''Played For Laughs''': Alice's demented driving and the results of it (AcquaintedWithEmergencyServices, passengers develop a TraumaButton, etc) is one of the running gags of the show.
* '''Played For Drama''': Alice gets people killed and it gives the sexist douchebags of the cast more ammunition to mock her.
* '''Played For Horror''': Every woman in the country becomes a ''Film/MadMax''-caliber [[AxCrazy psychopath]] whenever they get behind the wheel and not a day goes by where double- or triple-digit CarFu massacres are reported.

* '''Downplayed''': Alice isn't a bad driver, but she has trouble with refined techniques such as reverse parking.

** Bob mentions no woman can drive well [[HypocriticalHumor only to show he's a poor driver himself]], which makes other men assume he's a woman in disguise.
