I’m 25 and I don’t have a drivers license. I mean, I’ve never really felt the need to go and get one. Public transport is usually the fastest option where I live, and it takes a lot less responsibility to use it.
But most people would still prefer driving, rather than using the public T. Why?
I am all for public transport but where I am right now it is either borderline non-existent or useless. So I have to use my car. If I lived in a city with good and affordable public transport (which I plan to), I wouldn’t be using my car that often.
I specifically moved somewhere where we could use more public transit because my climate anxiety was overwhelming me.
Understandable!
Same-ish lol. I specifically looked at transit availability when I was purchasing a condo in the city. I’d open Google maps, click the nearest bus stop and see if I can get to a few central places in the city in one trip. Anywhere that required swapping buses was cancelled as an option.
I’ll still need my car like once a week or two, but being able to either walk to or use transit daily for most of my needs would be a huge improvement to me. But still won’t be fully able to get rid of the car!
