I thought this story was interesting:

In Saudi Arabia, a group of woman engaged in some civil disobedience by driving!

A few months ago, I was at a trade show (I think it was CES) and I asked a man from Saudi Arabia if driving was better there without any woman drivers. He told me that he thinks the drivers there are the worst, and that people generally don’t follow standard traffic convention. It’s a free-for-all.
