Nour Abbas of Deir Hanna went from bus driver to heavy-truck driver

The 32-year-old mother of two is one of very few Arab women in the trade.

Nour Abbas, 32, from Deir Hanna, drove buses before moving to heavy trucks, a job in which Arab women are still rare.

She got her bus licence at 26, after marrying and having two children, and drove for Superbus on lines around Nazareth, Afula and Wadi Ara. Her mother first opposed the idea out of worry for her safety.
