Ladies, start your engines.
Saudi Arabia's king issued a decree on Tuesday allowing women to drive, which would end a longstanding ban on female motorists in the ultra-conservative country.

But can they own / purchase a car? Or must they drive the husband or male relative's car with permission?
Can they drive alone? Can 2 , 3 , 4 women ride in a car with no man?

Agree completely.
I spent a lot of time in the ME back in the ‘80s and in those countries where they were allowed to drive (Kuwait for one) they were a danger to everyone on the road because when they were bagged up their field of vision must’ve almost none.
The males were bad enough, but the females were a total disaster.

We used to joke during Gulf Wars 1 and 2
that the reason the Arabs wouldn’t let their women drive was because the women wouldn’t come back.;)
