Riyadh: Saudi Arabia lifted the ban on women drivers on Sunday, sparking jubilation among many women in the country who went out on the roads to celebrate the iconic moment.
Women drivers and people throughout Saudi Arabia have been publishing scores of photos and videos in social media following the lifting of the ban.
Previously, women in Saudi Arabia had to depend on Chauffeurs and male relatives to travel anywhere via car. Pictures of Saudi police handing out roses to female drivers are going around in social media.
The lifting of ban on women driving in Saudi Arabia place the Gulf nation in line with the rest of the world. The lifting of the ban is just one of the many changes planned by Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman, who assumed power last year.
