Saudi Arabian Women Petition to Drive

Over six hundred women in Saudi Arabia have signed a petition to King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz.

The petition asks the king to make a law allowing women the right to get a driver's license and drive vehicles.


King Abdullah will receive the petition on Sunday, and many expect him to allow it.


Aziz is thanked, in the petition, for previously granting voting rights to women.

Women will get their first votes in the 2015 local elections.
