I'm sick of going on dates with crappy drivers

In the past year, I(21M)'ve been on dates with seven girls. Of those seven, only one hasn't had issues staying in the lane (and by issues I mean drifting into the opposite direction of traffic or putting the passenger over the dotted line), or hasn't gone 15 over and said "oops," or hasn't tried to run a gap that she clearly couldn't make.

I like paying for dates so girls usually offer to drive to balance it out, but I'm getting really really sick of biting my tongue as she goes 45 through the diverging diamond or turns left onto the wrong side of the median on a road she allegedly drives on often. I had a girl in her freshly bought 2002 volkswagen beetle try to run a gap on an unprotected left turn of maybe 4 car lengths going 50 mph. This was a week after my grandpa got the family into an accident that cost him his license. Thankfully she stopped when she realized but man. I'm sick of all the drifting on ice because you made the turn too sharp, I'm sick of you being too busy watching the radio dial to notice the light turned red, I'm sick of you insisting that going to a bar is a good idea because you can definitely drive after a couple drinks but IVE SEEN HOW YOU DRIVE SOBER. I'm sick of the "I'm sorry I'm a bad driver" and me having to be like "No no it's okay you're fine!" or what's worse: when they do this crap and then stay silent. The beetle girl I mentioned before will defend her driving to the death even though she's scraped people in parking lots recently and nearly killed one of our mutual friends turning left on a 4-way intersection when she had a red arrow. Like???

I don't for a second believe this is most women. I think I'm attracted to crappy drivers

You are just attracted to girls who happened to be crappy drivers, that's all.

Maybe change it up next time and ask them to pay so that you can drive :) or just do both I guess

If you’re sick of these girls feel free to give them my number, I don’t care about my own safety.

God, I understand this! I haven’t dated bad drivers, but even just riding along with some of my friends. Some of them aren’t bad drivers per say, but they think trying to drive like a race car driver whenever they feel like it is cool. I’m the only other person in this car and I don’t give a crap if your car can reach 120. I just want to go to tacobell.

You don’t have to be quiet when they are putting your life in danger. They can go crash and die on their own time. Don’t enable them and tell them it’s ok. Tell them to go take driving lessons before someone dies. And if they wanna break up over it then good riddance, you don’t need such a reckless partner that will ruin you both.
