A female singer in Saudi Arabia has celebrated the end of a driving ban for women in her own way. She recorded a a hilarious rap song and posted it online, where it has been watched almost half a million times on her YouTube channel and over a million times on Instagram.
The rap song, entitled We Are Driving, has gone viral and shows singer Leesa A rapping while she takes the steering wheel, sits on the bonnet and pokes her head through the sun roof.
In the video she said she has 'no need for taxis' with the driving ban lifted and said she can drive herself for the first time.
The longstanding ban on women driving in the conservative Muslim kingdom was lifted this month in a move announced last September.
In the rap video the singer offers advice to other female motorists, stressing the importance of wearing a seatbelt, Gulf News reported.
According to the BBC she went on: 'I don't need anyone to take me... Drivers' licence with me. 'The steering wheel in my hands, the pedal under my foot... I put the seat belt over my abaya [robe].'
