Well....no problem here, Abdul. Just take your scarves and go to Saudi. We really don't need your type here anyway.

So don't drive.
Take a hint from the Amish: If you want to be unreasonably peculiar, then opt out completely.

When I was growing up it was easy to tell the bandito's. They always wore masks to cover their identity.......
Guess thats all behind us now eh ?

A driver's license is a privilege not a right. As long the requirements for obtaining a license have some basis in logic and reality, there is no reason they should be changed. The only question to be answered is whether there is a logical reason to see a person's hair for the purpose of identification on a driver's license. It certainly seems logical... It will be interesting to see if a court also sees this requirement as logical. Fortunately, it isn't the Ninth Circuit that will be making the decision.

Driving is a priviledge. If she wants a license to drive she must comply with the rules. Otherwise learn to walk, take the bus, a cab, or get someone else to drive her.
And if she don't like that then she can move elsewhere!

"Some Muslim women in Alabama are upset because state driver's license officials are requiring them to remove their head scarves if they want to get a license." Onward Muslim Soldier Ping!

Nowhere in the Koran does it say that women should wear those things. I've also noticed that many young Muslim women will wear the scarf while at the same time wearing very form-fitting clothing. I guess hypocrisy isn't a sin in Islam.

Dear La Tonya,
Driving is a privilege, not a right. If you want to drive you have to obey the rules.
Hope this helps.

Muslims will not stop until the US is part of a greater Islamic Caliphate.

Well good don't get driving license. And if you get pull off by police officer on duty don't complain ok. After all this is not Saudi Arabia

Muslim women in Alabama are upset because state officials are requiring them to remove their head scarves if they want to get a license...(they)appealed to the state for an exemption for religious reasons, but were turned down...
I was quite upset on September 11, 2001 when seeing the results of similiar "religious reasons".
I suppose that would explain why I'm not terribly outraged on behalf of these women.
