Ten women in the Kingdom have officially been granted driver’s licenses on Monday ahead of the lift of the ban. According to Arab News, the first batch of ten women were ones who had already obtained international licenses. 

These women were just made to take a brief driving test and an eye exam prior to the issuance of the driver’s license at the General Directorate of Traffic in Riyadh. 

History has been made.

The video has now gone viral on Twitter, with many congratulating the first set of women and anticipation for others in full-frontal.
