Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah has overturned a court ruling sentencing a woman to 10 lashes for breaking a ban on female drivers, reports say.
The ruling, although not officially confirmed, was tweeted by a Saudi princess and reported by AP news agency citing an unnamed official.
The woman, named as Shema, was found guilty of driving in Jeddah in July.
The sentence came two days after the king announced women would be allowed to vote for the first time in 2015.
"Thank God, the lashing of Shema is cancelled. Thanks to our beloved king," tweeted Princess Amira al-Taweel, wife of Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal.
Two other women are due to appear in court later this year on similar charges, reports say.
In recent months, scores of women have driven vehicles in Saudi cities to put pressure on the monarchy.
"It seems the official stand is to ignore those women... and let the public slowly get used to to the idea of women driving before making it official," she told the BBC.
The Saudi interpretation of Islamic law includes the guardianship system under which women need permission from a male relative to participate in public life.
However, correspondents say King Abdullah has struck a reformist stance since he ascended the throne in 2005, especially in regard to women's rights.
