A recent UK Sunday newspaper ran a brief report about a five month study the Lithuanian government has just conducted.

As a result of the study, the government has scrapped a law that required women to take a gynaecological examination before they could be issued a driver's licence. Government officials argued that certain diseases in women could cause sufficient pain to hinder driving. “This requirement made our country look more than strange” said a health ministry spokesman.

Strange, indeed, says the Beetle, wondering what if any examination the men have to undergo.
