Enjoy your drive today!
Probably was not NICE to say "HER" in that last statement, at least not politically correct, or even a "good" joke. "Her" implies that women are stupid and worse drivers than men, which insurance statistics say is NOT true. If it was intended as a JOKE that is not TOO terrible and misogynistic - but it is still a too -old joke and ceased to be funny after 1950!
