The battle of the sexes is moving to the parking lot.

A new study out of Britain finds women are better at parking cars than men.

This conclusion comes from hidden cameras showing men and women maneuvering into parking spots.

While women took longer to park, researchers say they were better at finding spaces and more accurate in lining themselves up to park.         

Apparently, impatience caused many men to drive too quickly around the parking lot causing them to miss spots.

Men often parked crooked, rarely parking evenly between the lines, according to the study. Read more.

Do you agree with this study? Who do you feel is better when it comes to parking cars, men or women?
