Women Behind The Wheel Describe First Time Driving Experience As Saudi Lifts Ban

Saudi Arabia has headed into a progressive direction by ending its longstanding ban on women driving on Sunday. The second the clock struck midnight on 24 June, women across the country started their car engines and took their cars for a spin.

This is what it was like for one of those women as she drove across Riyadh, the city of her birth, in her own words:”My name is Samar Almogren. I’m a talk show host and writer. I took off my niqab a long time ago. When I first decided to show my face on television, it did not go down well. My brothers were very upset. But my father supported me, and has always supported me in all of my life decisions. He’s the one who encouraged me to study abroad, reported news agency AFP.
