In 1998 Queen Elizabeth invited the Prince of Saudi Arabia to visit Balmoral castle. While the prince was waiting for some male driver to arrive, the queen herself took the driver seat, knowing that Saudi Arabia forbids women from driving, and drove a high speed tour while the prince asking over and over to slow down.
BTW, the queen had a lot of experience as a Land Rover mechanic and driver during WW2.
