News Synopsis

Saudi women are forever blowing trumpets to join the bandwagon to grab their hands on hot wheels in Saudi Arabia. Rumors are swirling around since forever that someday these women, ‘suppressed’ under the veil, will break free from the strict laws that are fired against them. Credits for bringing forth the change go to Prince Mohammed who broke the ice by announcing that women will be finally rushed behind the wheels. Saudi women are getting ready to pitch themselves for building lavish driving institutes and to raise highly professional female driving tutors from foreign countries. The driving detail looking at women has surely raised flags in other countries because one can’t live just without living to the fullest. If not now then when? how long will you hold the women of your country in captivity, it is everyone’s duty to raise a voice and stop the stupid laws that believe in the suppression of women.

Not everybody in the corner of the world shed positivity, but instead question ‘what took them so long’ and burst into vague reactions, the online critics are ranting a lot of rubbish. Finally, Saudi society is beginning to yearn towards a fruitful step that would benefit the rights of women. The order was implemented by June 2018, depending on whether we may know the country will finally allow women to drive. Since we can’t be sure of the news, the issued orders may or not be accepted. Let’s hope for the best!
