Differences between the sexes are becoming less noticeable when it comes to teenage driving.
In what seems like a role reversal, girls are expressing a new need for speed, while aggressive driving and speeding by boys is down.
According to Allstate Foundation's "Shifting Teen Attitudes: The State of Teen Driving 2009," 27 percent of girls admit to speeding at least 10 miles over the speed limit, vs. 19 percent of boys.
Also, 16 percent of girls report that they are very aggressive while driving, up from 9 percent in 2005. Meanwhile, 13 percent of teen boys admitted to being very aggressive while driving, vs. 20 percent in 2005.
All in all girl drivers seem to have been distracted while driving. Due to the percentage of speed limit as well as agressiveness.
