Women in Saudi Arabia will be able to drive trucks and motorcycles from next June.
The conservative kingdom announced the move on Friday 15/12/2017, as part of wider reforms easing gender segregation in the country.

It comes just three months after King Salman announced he will be lifting a ban on women drivers next year. The Saudi General Directorate of Traffic said:

‘Yes, we will authorise women to drive motorcycles as well as trucks.’ Driving laws will be ‘equal’ for men and women, and there will be no special licence plate numbers for cars driven by women.

Any woman who commits a traffic violation or is involved in an accident will be dealt with at special centres run and established by women. Before the lifting of the ban, Saudi Arabia was the only country in the world to not allow female drivers, which it maintained for decades.

Saudi women who hold driving licences from other Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states will be issued with Saudi ones, without any driving tests.

Women visiting Saudi Arabia will also be allowed to use their accredited foreign and international driving licences for one year only from the day of entering the country

About 1.3 million foreign drivers will have to leave Saudi Arabia as the kingdom prepares to issue driving licences to women.
87.2 percent of Saudi families use private drivers,with the foreign house-drivers been paid a minimum of 12,000 Saudi Riyals (approx.3,200 US Dollar=N1,153,600) per year, in addition to food and accommodation.

OK,

Nice...

That's a good development

Nothing bad allowing them to drive trucks

But the bike aspect is a no no, becos of the Niqab-its not wise driving a bike with a flowing gown

Christian leaders should also be allowed to build Christian religious Houses in Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia doesn't know what it's going into.

Women should not be allowed to drive,
Women must remain in the house, isolated from all.

If they must drive;
Then they should drive away hunger,
Drive away conji and speed up their husband's libidos.

churches to follow !!!

All thanks to the crown prince of Saudi Arabia,Mohammad bin salman.Who has plans for vision 2030 and push reforms for Women in Saudi Arabia whom he said would be part of his Economic reforms.Such a visionary leader,I am so happy this is taking place In an ultra-conservative nation like Saudi Arabia the kingdom is truly open to reforms,Just this year women were allowed into the stadium in Saudi Arabia,given the right to vote in local elections and hold public offices in 2015 and have had restrictions eased on them for sometime now.The women in Saudi Arabia are gradually gaining their rights what a nice development from the kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Islam as a religion needs serious reforms
It's not ideal in a 21st century world

Christianity in 21st century is not ideal either.
Rich pastors, impoverished congregation.
Gucci pastors, pick down select members.

Will you keep kwayet! What’s Muslim got to do with the news?
There are other Muslim countries that allow women to drive.
This is Saudi’s culture....not religion.
