Is watir web driver thread safe?

My subject is the question.

What research have you done towards finding an answer? I don’t want to
duplicate your efforts.

I have got that selenium is not thread safe… but what about
watir-webdriver?

Reference:

On Windows mine is in:
C:\Ruby193\lib\ruby\gems\1.9.1\gems\watir-webdriver-0.6.1

So you’ll just need the appropriate directory tree in relation to your
Ruby install.

Where is the path of @browser=Watir::Browser.new in ubuntu?

So that I can dig into the code, what is happening?
