Women are safer drivers in spite of the map challenge thing which doesn't really matter anymore in today's GSP guided low carbon emission world. We don't have child chimney sweeps. It was a great achievement. We can't rest on those laurels anymore though.

Let your government know that Saudi Arabia doesn't allow women drive.

driving cars is cool & attracts men - top scientists have proved it.

I do not think that you need a car if you live in a city, everything is achievable through
transport infrastructure and using your on legs, but if you live half way up a hill miles
and miles from ;shopping, dentists, hospital, medical and have kids and older people
who require things then it becomes a necessary luxury- what I do not get is this:

Why do some women think its k to have huge grilled death machines and off-roaders
to go maybe a quarter mile to the local school?
