French police fine Muslim driver for wearing veil.
A French Muslim woman has been fined for wearing a full-face veil while driving a car.
Full story.

Can you even imagine this happening in the UK? When it comes to religious intolerance, the French have a lot to teach us!!

I'm part French, so thank you very much
"This fine is not justified on road safety grounds and constitutes a breach of human and women's rights," her lawyer, Jean-Michel Pollono, told AFP news agency."
Yes, forcing women to wear a ninja hood is a violation of their rights
"He said the woman's field of vision was not obstructed and added that a veil was no different from a motorcycle helmet in terms of hindrance to vision."
Actually, I'd have to agree here
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

Well at least they separated the two
At least I'm housebroken.

It is quite amusing to see muslims coming out on the side of human AND women's rights, isn't it?
Funny how the right to wear a bikini is less well espoused by that quarter...

It's a point, but the helmet is designed to rotate with the head so the eyes still work as they should. I imagine that there is a certain amount of "slippage" of a head within a veil.
I do love the French. I have NEVER had an issue with them and I would live in France at a moment's notice. Mais oui!

Why would she want to rotate her head? Mirrors! Checking over the shoulder! Looking left and right before pulling out of a junction! The muslim women do very well without bothering with any of that bollox.
