Women have a reputation for being bad drivers, which is one of many preconceptions about them. With a video in their most recent commercial, Kotak General Insurance Company Limited attempted to dispute this.
The video, which lasts 1 minute and 21 seconds, shows a group of women having fun on a bus that suddenly comes to a halt after the driver passes out. A woman sits in the driver’s seat, steadfastly driving the bus to a hospital with no help in sight.
