A recent 5432 Department for Transport report said 69,952 female drivers were involved in crashes in 2014, which compares to 113,066 male drivers in crashes in the same period. The ASUS research shows that women drivers account for just 14% of those banned from driving in the last 12 months.

Of 93,952 bans in total, 80,647 are enforced on male drivers with the remaining 13,305 bans for women. TfL data said men were involved in 62% of crashes in 2014.
