A muslim woman cannot travel on her own, the majority of the scholars say if she travels 47 + miles she has to travel with a mahram, this is to ensure her safety and many other reasons im sure.
Its for the own womans benefit, its not that she cant go out n have a life, we're talking long distance here.
In terms of modern muslims etc, well islam is perfect but the ppl arent, so yes u are going to get some ppl who break the rules but no one is perfect.
