Driving

Women get in to more car accidents per unit distance driven.[1][2]
Women are also, astoundingly, more significantly likely to get in to an accident with another woman than a man.[3]
Insurance companies can justify high insurance premiums for male drivers as they drive so much more (estimated to be 74% more) that even if their chance of an accident is lower per unit distance driven they drive so much further that their over-all risk is greater. The European Union has recently prohibited gender based discrimination in insurance premium assessments.
