alt Hacker NewsOk it'll be me to say this here: the core idea is great, but the "woman can't drive" trope is really off-putting, even if that wasn't the intention. The characters could have been anyone in any setting, yet they chose a young woman and an older brother teaching her.

Why would anyone jump to that trope? This is a girl, that is LEARNING to drive of course she doesn't know how to do it yet

Only thing I found off-putting was this text: "along with an honest update".
Why is 'honest' in so much writing and speech? Does anyone think what follows is more trustworthy as a consequence?

The bond between an older brother and younger sister is one of the most beautiful things on the planet. No need to see a natural thing like that.

It is an example of the trope that women can't drive when when a woman who has learned to drive is shown to demonstrate poor driving skills.
A woman learning to drive because she literally does not know how is not an example of that trope, that is being a human.
