Is it true unemployed women can't drive?
Im currently in the process of getting my driver's license. im going for my road test for the 2nd time next week. im currently working but next im thinking of taking off from work to further my education. so if i decide to quit my job will i get my license taken away?
because i heard a while ago that only working women would be allowed to get drivers license.
I am a homemaker and I drive. Didn't have a problem getting my license.
It's true. Employed women can't drive either. actually lets just drop the employment status from the sentence and save a word :p
It is always better to check with the authorities concerned on such issues. Since you will be going for the road test next week that could be the time to know the fact.
some time ago they were discussing this matter and almost were going to implement this rule.. but common sense has won at that time..
im glad it wasn't approved. i mean that would have been creating serious hardships on family. i know a lot of women who stay at home but they still have to drive around taking their kids to 2 or 3 different schools then they have to take do the food shopping. and sometimes husband doesn't get home until late.
i was asking because a few friend of mines were telling me only working women can get licenses.
Women can't drive, working or not.
What twisted minds come up with such rumors..
i know and have seen a lot of unemployed guys driving and having better rides then mine LOL
driving has nothing to do with employment
Of course she can drive after providing necessary papers & NOC...
and after getting the license as well :)
no women driver comments
I Haven't Heard It Also..... I Think You Can Drive, There Shouldn't Be Any Issue At All Inshallah.
either way she can't :P
should not be a problem if one have valid Qatar's driving license
In 2007, a number of Traffic Control proposals/suggestions were forwarded by the Traffic Department to the Government. The aim was to reduce traffic congestion on the roads. One of the suggestion was to stop giving driving licenses to people bearing a visa status of either labor, gardener, cook, housewife etc. Local women were of course exempted.
Thanks God, it was not approved. :-)
you have a 'no objection letter' from your sponsor/husband. Or a letter allowing you to take the driving license.
Actually it is true...
And previously it was published in local newspaper as well, but housewives can apply for driver's license and they need to show some valid reasons.
i thought people from the US were a smarter lot...but you changed my views..
lol
No.
