Did Kuwait use to ban women from driving?
score:7
Accepted answer
Finally, I must mention that women can work, drive, and wander freely in Kuwait-it is one of the least restrictive areas of the Middle East, although the freedom of the West is still a little distant. British Medical Journal, 1979
Apparently Kuwaiti women could drive in 1979, which should answer the question.
