According to Arabic sources, a video which has gone viral on social media showing a car that appears to be impaled on rods of a metallic roadside barrier, was driven by a male. 

Rumors had been circulated that the driver was a woman, but that is false, as a  Tabuk-based Red Crescent spokesperson indicated. 

"The operations room received a tip off that a 30-year-old man had an accident in Tabuk area.

"He was transferred to King Khalid hospital and is now in stable condition."
