[Mercado] Segundo um estudo da Easypark, os melhores condutores conduzem um Volkswagen

[homemmoderno]

Sabe que marcas escolhem os melhores condutores?


Segundo um estudo da Easypark em Espanha, os melhores condutores conduzem um Volkswagen, seguido da Toyota, Renault e Peugeot, enquanto os piores estão atrás de um volante de um Kia e de um SEAT.

A aplicação de pesquisa de estacionamento Easypark, juntamente com a empresa de estudos de mercado YouGov, publicaram um estudo que revela que marcas de automóveis utilizam os condutores mais cotados pelos restantes utilizadores. De acordo quase 30% das respostas, os condutores de veículos da Volkswagen são considerados os mais seguros na sua condução, seguidos dos condutores de modelos da Toyota, Renault, Peugeot e Ford.
No lado contrário, temos a Kia e a SEAT com os condutores menos valorizados e, consequentemente, menos seguros na estrada.
No que se prende com o estacionamento, os condutores de viaturas da Volkswagen continua a liderar a tabela, reunindo 21% dos votos, com os da Kia a fecharem novamente a lista com apenas 5%.
Em termos de faixas etárias, são os condutores mais jovens, entre os 18 e os 29 anos, que obtiveram melhores resultados, precisamente com a fabricante alemã, enquanto os maiores de 60 anos ocupam a cimeira com marcas como a Opel e a Peugeot.
No que se relaciona com o género, não se registaram diferenças significativas, salvo entre os condutores da Kia, onde as mulheres têm pior avaliação que os homens.
Por fim, geograficamente falando, os condutores da zona sul do país são os que têm melhor perceção dos condutores da VW, seguidos dos a zona centro e noroeste.





E vocês.................são bons ou maus condutores?

Ha aí qualquer coisa de errado nesse estudo, então os piores não eram os dos prius?

7 Reasons Why Prius Owners Are Bad Drivers



Driving in traffic is a soul-seizing grind. But getting stuck behind a Prius will make your commute that much worse. Day in and day out, I am perplexed by the way Prius drivers execute everyday driving tasks with such utter disregard for those around them. Ever wonder what makes these Prius owners such awful drivers? Well I do. I’ve spent countless hours behind Prius drivers contemplating on just what makes them tick. My research is your gain. So, I now openly share the seven reasons why I believe Prius drivers are the worst on the road.

• It’s Their First Car — Yes, it’s the only car they’ve ever known. Six weeks earlier they were driving a white Prius with a large “AAA driving school” sticker on the door. They now believe that since this is the first car they learned to drive, it’s the only car they can drive. But they couldn’t be more wrong. They don’t know how to drive! And what’s the deal with every K1 visa arrival driving a Prius? Do they arrive in America and immediately get handed the keys to their very own vanilla bean colored Prius? Just sayin.
• They Can’t Hear The Engine Running — Hybrid Prius owners have a conundrum. Is my motor actually running? What is a motor? Since they don’t actually know how the car operates, it’s hard for them to understand when it’s time to drive. Stopped in traffic, it gets so calm and peaceful inside that they forget they’re even on the road. This explains the huge gaps between the car in front of every Prius. It’s not uncommon to see five, six, or even 10 car lengths between a Prius and it’s nearest in-front neighbor. Immersed in the serenity, they begin to check messages, text gramma (who may have bought them the car) or just completely zone out, only awakend by an angry honk or obscenity-backed flipped bird.
• They’re Fidgety Nerds — During covert observations I’ve noticed that nearly two-thirds of all Prius owners reach for something in the console or glovebox while stopped in traffic. Is it a Rubiks cube? A plotting calculator? Or are they just checking their Candy Crush high score? Well, it’s hard to tell. All I know is that they’re constantly fidgeting about inside the car and playing with something rather than reinforcing their driving skills.
• It’s Nearly 50% Glass — Since the Prius is overwhelmingly manufactured out of glass, it’s no wonder the drivers are uncomfortable and distracted. My God, have you seen the seen the windshield? It’s like 9 cubic feet! Even with the air conditioner on, you must feel like an ant under a magnifying glass. I mean, is window tint not even available as an option? It wouldn’t surprise me if these people arrive to work with cataracts and stage III melanoma. It’s the only vehicle to require you to use sunscreen before you drive.
• They’re Oversized People Crammed Into an Undersized Car — More times than not, it’s a gigantic person squeezed into the tiny car. Whether it’s a 6' 9" Brad Garrett looking mofo, or a, eh-hmm, robust woman, I’m like “what the hell were you people thinking when you bought this car?” “Yes, two inches clearance on all sides is all I need.” It’s not uncommon to see the drivers arm pressed up against the window looking like a canned ham on a glass coffee table. It’s kind of hard to hit your blinker when you’re pinned ass-to-elbows against the car’s interior. No one yet understands the mystery behind this phenomenon.
• They Support Bernie Sanders — Not all Prius owners support Bernie Sanders, yet I’m quite sure all Bernie Sanders’ supporters drive Prius’. So how does this affect their driving, you may ask. Well, Sanders is an avowed Socialist. He believes nobody should have to pay for anything — except the wealthy and big corporations, of course. So there is no doubt that the Bernie sticker-placing Prius owner believes that it is the other driver’s responsibility to look out for him. Just as he believes someone else should pay for his college education, he also believes that someone else should be responsible for the way he drives. You can be stuck in traffic behind a big black SUV and wondering, “what the mother F’n hell is going on!” As you change lanes and pass, you see it — Yep, just as I thought… A Prius with a Bernie sticker four cars ahead of the SUV driving 20 in a 45. Fuel the Bern!
• They’re Out To Save The Planet- Whether it’s the fifty-something, single, scarf-wearing-in-August paralegal, or a sixth-year Sociology major undergrad headed to their job at Footlocker, they’ve got one thing in common — they’re out to save the planet. They believe, wrongly, that driving their Prius slow as shit, will somehow stave off the calamity of man. They’re gonna save this world no matter how many people they inconvenience. Or, they could just be completely clueless. The jury is still out on this one. Either way, you look in the car to see the driver, hands at ten-n-two, seat up so far that they are fogging the windshield, L.A. Weekly rolled up in the window to block out the sun, and you just get the sense that somethings not quite right with this person.

BMW: The Greatest Car Ever Made Says Top Gear’s Hammond


If it was anybody else, you could probably just dismiss it as babel or a momentary lapse of judgement. But to hear from Richard Hammond, a guy who achieved global fame by sitting behind the wheel of some of the world's fastest and most exotic cars, is an entirely different matter.
To say nice things about pricey German cars is as common as cliches, but for the co-host of Top Gear to throw out ''best car ever made," that's cause to pull over and listen.
"To a degree you really could make a case for them being exactly that," Hammond says in the attached video, pointing to BMW's engineering pedigree and a reputation for quality that assures you their cars will "be here in ten years."
Hammond's revelation first came to light in a column he wrote for London's The Daily Mirror, in which he called the new 3-Series "three-mendous." In hilarious fashion, this critic turned fan actually berates himself for not being able to find faults, and even admits how much easier it is to be critical than complimentary.
All of this comes as the new 3-Series marks the 6th generation or platform update for a model that's nearly 40 years old. It also comes at a time when consumers appear to be in agreement with Hammond, as BMW just posted its best first-quarter sales ever, with a total of 425,000 more going to China than the U.S.
"Their cars are not about cutting edge, brand new technology, breaking new ground, pushing things further," Hammond says. "Their cars are about doing what's already known...and doing it extremely well."

Estudos de boa condução vindos de espanha? Tá bem tá, cambada de assassinos Seja que marca for

[tosilva]

Mas que grande parvoíce de estudo, alias, acho que nem foi um "estudo" foi mais um concurso pois segundo parece foi uma "votação" do que as pessoas pensavam sobre a condução dos outros.

Não deixa de ser interessante esse resultado em Espanha, tivesse sido em Portugal e aposto que todos tinham votado nos condutores da Mercedes como sendo os piores, em especial o pessoal dos 190D

Não, essa não, vivi vários anos em Espanha e eles são muito mais educados e respeitadores que os portugueses, não se colam na traseira, não buzinam porque o sinal mudou para verde à 5 microsegundos, Madrid não é a barafunda que se vê em Lisboa, quem diz Lisboa diz qualquer estrada nacional

Até podia ser...mas os mata-velhos são carros

Nada melhor que uma boa ventoinha xD

Faltou especificar a cor com menos acidentes

[CarlosAndrade]

Os piores serão provavelmente os Audi com os seus condutores que pensam que têm a "Ultimate Sai da Frente Machine!!!"

[ZylmhuinVII]

Mau!

Isto é uma cabala!

[Ratcher]

Concordo que os melhores condutores sejam os dos VW! Cientifico, quem disser que nao é porque é hater.

colocado no tópico da BMW mas também se aplica aqui:

cycling one morning over the East Bay Hills, Professor Dacher Keltner had a near-death experience. “I was riding my bike to school,” he recalls, “and I came to a four-way intersection. I had the right of way, and this black Mercedes just barrelled through.” With two feet to spare before impact, the driver slammed on his brakes. “He seemed both surprised and contemptuous, as if I was in his more important way.” Keltner’s first response was a mixture of anger and relief: no Berkeley psychology professor with surfer-dude hair had been smeared over the Californian tarmac that day. His second was more academic. Was there, he wondered, a measurable difference between the behaviour of Mercedes owners and those of other cars? Cars that didn’t cost twice the average annual income of an American middle-class family? Had the guy who nearly killed him bought something else, along with $130,000-worth of German engineering?
The professor put a group of students on the case; sent them out with clipboards to loiter on the traffic islands of Berkeley. They monitored vehicle etiquette at road junctions, kept notes on models and makes. They observed who allowed pedestrians their right of way at street crossings; who pretended not to see them and roared straight past. The results couldn’t have been clearer. Mercedes drivers were a quarter as likely to stop at a crossing and four times more likely to cut in front of another car than drivers of beaten-up Ford Pintos and Dodge Colts. The more luxurious the vehicle, the more entitled its owner felt to violate the laws of the highway.
What happened on the road also happened in the lab. In some experiments Keltner and his collaborators put participants from a variety of income brackets to the test; in others, they “primed” subjects to feel less powerful or more powerful by asking them to think about people more or less powerful than themselves, or to think about times when they felt strong or weak. The results all stacked the same way. People who felt powerful were less likely to be empathetic; wealthy subjects were more likely to cheat in games involving small cash stakes and to dip their fists into a jar of sweets marked for the use of visiting children. When watching a video about childhood cancer they displayed fewer physiological signs of empathy.
Similar results occurred even when the privilege under observation had no meaning beyond the experiment room. Rigged games of Monopoly were set up in which one player took a double salary and rolled with two dice instead of one: winners failed to acknowledge their unfair advantage and reported that they had triumphed through merit. In another study, volunteers were divided into bosses and workers and set to work on an administrative task. When a plate of biscuits was brought into the room, the managers reached for twice as many as the managed. “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely,” said Lord Acton in 1887. Here was the evidence, lab-tested, that it also awakened the Cookie Monster within.
