So maybe we've been thinking about this issue all wrong. Perhaps we should be writing about how Saudi Arabia is the only country in the world where ONLY MEN drive. Which would explain the high accident rate, the out-of-control traffic, and the crazy stunt driving. The latest example of this is the YouTube video of the guy sitting on the hood of a moving car, leaning on the windshield (in front of the driver's seat no less) texting. Take any country in the world - say Australia. If women were banned from driving, how long would it take before the drivers started driving out of control? They'd all be in competition, speeding, getting into fights, causing accidents. I think this sort of thing would happen anywhere that women aren't allowed on the roads.
To me, this video is just another proof that Saudi women need to get in their cars immediately and transform the city streets from race tracks and demolition derbies to avenues where families can travel safely. When women start driving, they will slow everything down.
