First, fundamentalism isn't easily measured. Second, one cannot generalize that all, or even most, Muslims are fundamentalists, because the fact is that fundamentalists are most likely the minority in any group.

Why are Muslims not allowed to walk alone in the street?

There is no such restriction on the Muslims. They may walk alone in the street. You are likely thinking of Saudi Arabia where there is a legal requirement that women be accompanied by men at all times. This is a very restrictive and fundamentalist form of Islam that is not practiced elsewhere and only in force because of the Saudi government's endorsement of religious extremism. The rationale behind the rule is that men may not be able to restrain themselves from having sex with an unguarded woman and therefore, she should always be protected. Outside of Saudi Arabia, most Muslims agree with Westerners to the extent that a woman merely walking alone does not invite her own rape.
