Maybe Mao had something...

Perhaps a “journey of a thousand miles begins with"... a single step on the accelerator.
A group of women in Saudi Arabia is for the first time to lobby the kingdom's government for the right to drive cars.

Members of the Committee of Demanders of Women's Right to Drive Cars plan to deliver a petition to King Abdullah by Sunday, Saudi Arabia's National Day.
It could get a little sticky though... next thing you know, these chicks'll be zoomin' around AND givin' you their own opinions.
Correspondents say the demand is likely to be rejected, as conservatives argue if women are allowed to drive, they will be able to mix freely with men.
Where will it end?
