In Saudi Arabia women can be arrested for driving a car.
A high profile campaign in 2011 saw women drivers take to the roads in protest. Some were arrested for their participation.
Despite catching the world’s attention, the ban remains in place.
This is a blatant violation of women’s rights to non-discrimination and equality. Saudi Arabia must end its pariah status as the sole country in the world that bans women from driving.
