Saudi Couple Arrested For Kissing During Driving Lessons

Authorities have arrested a Saudi couple for kissing on camera. The man was giving the woman driving lessons and shared the clip on Snapchat.

It was captioned ‘teaching her how to drive’, but the incident has landed them in trouble. Saudi Arabia has only just started allowing women to drive with the first group only receiving their licences in June this year.

The move was seen as part of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s far-reaching liberalisation drive as he seeks to modernise the conservative state.

However, following the kiss in the car, this couple now face jail in the ultra-conservative country after the video went viral angering Saudis who blasted the couple for moral intolerance.
