Women Car Drivers In Saudi Arabia
Women Car Drivers in Saudi Arabia
By Elton Camp
Saudi women don’t often drive a car
So it’s problem for them to go far
Saudi Arabia is an unusual nation
Without any public transportation
A taxi or private driver they must use
To walk in the street they can’t choose
Social stigma keeps them from the wheel
There is no law with which they must deal
So fear alone is what prevents their driving
To overcome that pressure they are striving
Women are taking it into their own hand
They can drive as well as any man can
The royal family generally support the change
But say it is something families should arrange
Until that time, a Saudi woman has to be brave
If to that social pressure she’s unwilling to cave
