There is divided opinion on which gender is more skilled behind the wheel. But does this parking space take the argument one step too far?
IT'S the age-old question: Are men better drivers than women, or vice versa?
And debate was sparked again on Wednesday's episode of This Morning with presenters Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield discussing "women only" parking spaces.
The bays have been introduced in China and are marked out by pink paint with black high heels.
The spaces are larger than normal, and are designed to help women to get in and out, as well as provide extra space for loading and unloading.
But the debate on This Morning about the new pink spots sparked outrage online with people claiming the idea is entirely "degrading" and sexist to suggest women need larger spaces as they aren't as good at parking as men.
In an attempt to settle the debate, Holly and Phil decided to go head-to-head in a parking challenge to see who was the more skilled driver.
Taking the wheel in the This Morning 4x4, the pair both attempted to reverse into a parking space in one go - and Holly came out on top - even managed to complete it in tall stiletto heels no less.
Schofield was quick to concede defeat, noting that he had parked too far over the line markings.
"Women Only" spaces have also been adopted in a number of other countries around the world, with Russia implementing them at Moscow Airport last year in order to assist female drivers.
Numerous studies have tried to settle the debate once and for all, with it being revealed in November last year that women aged between 20 and 29 were the driver category most likely to have an accident.
On the other hand, figures released in July showed that men were ten times more likely to be killed behind the wheel than women.
But at the end of the day, a bad driver is a bad driver, regardless of their gender.
