Taxi apps in Saudi Arabia are flourishing in large part due to demand from women unable to drive themselves, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
Rory Jones and Ahmed al-Omran note that taxi and ride-sharing businesses are rushing to meet demand in Saudi Arabia, and the services are well-liked by many women who are finding greater mobility, or at least mobility at a cheaper price than before.
“They take me to work, they pick me up from the airport, they take me anywhere I want,” one Saudi woman said.
