In 2013, Judge Javier Albar ruled that men are better drivers and a driving school called the Zaragoza Driving School in Spain, were legally allowed to charge more in order to teach women.
But how much more you ask? Almost 200 full euros more! Men were able to pay 665 euros for their driving lessons while women were charged 850 euros for the same exact offer.
Initially, the driving school was fined 4,000 euros for sexual discrimination and was asked to overturn their charging differences, but the same judge overturned that ruling when the driving school provided “evidence” that claimed men were better at driving.
Spain’s Women Institute then attempted to take the petition the constitutional court to fight this judge.
