If I had the option, I would have never bothered learning how to drive. I never felt the need to drive, when I could just cycle everywhere. However, because I moved to my aunts place, she forced me go to a driving school to learn how to drive. I passed the dmv and am getting my license at 24.

I overheard my coworker talk about how a lot of her college classmates choose not to learn how to drive. This article from Vox, is from 2015, talks about young people are driving less.

Plenty of other articles out there discussing a more shift of the young people not learning to driving because they are choosing not to. So don’t worry about not having a driver license, you’re not the only one.

I felt like the upfront cost of a used/new car as well as insurance plus yearly maintenance, car ownership is not worth it. It’s cheaper to just use public transport and uber if you’re willing to spend more time waiting. Maybe consider getting a e-bike if your city is pedestrian friendly. Don’t need to get a license as well as you can park anywhere given you lock it up properly. It’s much cheaper than a car, and you’ll be working out somewhat.
