Women at the Wheel:
42 Stories of Freedom, Fanbelts
and the Lure of the Open Road
Women and cars? Of
course! Nearly half of all new and
used vehicles are purchased today
by women. Here are women themselves,
talking about their relationships
with cars, their competence, their
senses of identity, their freedom.
Many of the cars are older models,
and their owners have learned to
tinker and coddle, cajole and bully
their wheels to work. Some of the
cars were bought following life
crises-divorce, widowhood, a death
in the family, and represent an
extension of their driver's personality.
The real-life women in Women at
the Wheel are gutsy and practical,
and include a motorcyclist, a bus
driver, and a truck driver.
