Hi everyone. I am Fayez, filipino. I just want to ask something. I am working at the hospital and i have filipino female friends. They are planning to go somewhere in Riyadh, Red Sand for specific. They want me to rent a car, is there any problem if i will take them inside the car where is im only the male. And i think we will pass by with a checkpoint. Please advice. Thank you so much

It can be done since you all are same nationality and work in the same hospital, but at the same time it's a risk factor.
All it depends on how you play along, if you appear to be nervous it may raise red flags. Be confident, you'll be fine.
Good luck

My advice is not to take this risk on checkpoints.
It's just a matter of "Iqamas please". And all your built-up confidence will be shattered into million pieces.
