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?

    A) I have ADHD, so timing is an issue.

    B) If I have to go far enough to drive instead of walk, I am probably going out to get a significant amount of stuff. I can’t shove a Costco shopping trip onto a bus, nor carry it to/from the bus.

    C) The other reason for traveling far means that I am probably traveling a far bit away. There is no way the bus is faster when it’s an hour drive without traffic.

    D) I hate dealing with random people all the time. I get in my car, I put on my music or podcast, and/or talk with my wife, and just go.
