Ban on Women Driving in Saudi Arabia Lifted

Ban on Women Driving in Saudi Arabia Lifted.

Women right recognized!!!

At the stroke of midnight local time on Sunday, 24/06/2018,  extraordinary scenes unfolded on the roads of Saudi Arabia.

Women were seen behind the wheels of cars and astride motorcycles — driving on the country’s streets for the first time in decades, following the Islamic kingdom’s decision to lift the world’s only ban on female drivers. 

Pedestrians cheered as women motorists drove by, and male drivers shouted words of support and offered thumbs-ups through car windows. Photos shared on social media showed Saudi police officers giving out flower bouquets and cards with words of encouragement emblazoned on them to women drivers.
