Saudi Arabia was only country in the world to ban women from driving. Neither Islamic law nor Saudi traffic law explicitly prohibits women from driving, but they were not issued licences and were detained if they attempted to drive.Here is a look at things women in Saudi Arabia can do or can't do:1. Women can't socialise with males outside their immediate families, can be imprisoned for such an offence3. Also, Sunni women can't marry a Shia man or a communist (atheist)6. The legal position in Saudi Arabia of a woman is equal to that of a minor, and therefore she has little authority over her own life9.
