Kabul’s women drivers handling more than traffic

Afghanistan’s pioneering women get behind the wheel to drive through stigma.

Only a tiny percentage of licenced drivers are women, and many of them often face abuse and threats from men who see a woman behind the wheel as an affront to Afghan culture.
