I'm the same. Cars and driving don't interest me one bit. Although i'm only 19, mind, so that might change in the future if I ever need to be able to drive.

Driving opens up so much possibilities including work

King Gizzard 01-03-2017 09:36 PM

Not a fan of the clutch and I think my dad would disown me if I tried an automatic so

King Gizzard 01-03-2017 09:36 PM

I have no interest in cars either

Kizzy 01-03-2017 09:53 PM

I didn't, until this year my son and I will be learning to drive together :)

Marsh. 01-03-2017 09:54 PM

I was always intimidated by the thought of driving and wasn't interested in cars in general.

I learnt to drive last year though and it's the best thing I've ever done. It might've made me a tad more lazy though. :worry:

RichardG 01-03-2017 09:54 PM

i can barely cross the road without getting run over, i won't be learning to drive any time soon.

MTVN 01-03-2017 10:08 PM

Be surprised if anyone's who's learnt to drive has regretted it/still not cared for it even with all the expense and hassle that it brings. Just offers so much freedom that you don't have otherwise. I probs appreciate it more living in a rural village where there's next to no public transport but even if you don't really need to drive its always good to have the opportunity there imo

Always wanted to drive and started learning as soon as I was 17

Don't know where I'd be without my car

I passed my test years ago and sold my car before i even got to drive it and have never driven since i passed. I enjoyed driving but i'm too wreckless and my concentration is poor so i've never driven for my own good, everywhere i go someone else always seems to be driving so it's never bothered me either and saved me money.

Live rural and get back to me. You need to drive. If you have children it borders on neglect

Tom4784 01-03-2017 10:43 PM

I've never been behind the wheel of a car by choice. I have poor depth perception and awareness and I get dizzy spells quite often, I just don't believe it's safe for me to drive.

smudgie 01-03-2017 10:54 PM

Passed my test 25 years ago come July, haven't driven for over ten.
I have a wonderful Chauffeur.

ebandit 02-03-2017 08:21 AM

...........maybe? i'm spoilt living next to a city......there really is no need to drive

i'm proud of members aware that they might not make good drivers....this does not

stop others..................cars everywhere!

Can't imagine where I'd be without my car. My wife never learnt to drive and she says it's the biggest mistake of her life not learning. R.

Here here. I can't count the number of lifts i've given to my daughters over the years! R.

I'm not a car guy. You can ask me what car has just passed me and I'll just say its colour :joker:
I've been quite stressed out during my driving lessons (for no reason), so it was funny when I managed to pass the first test.
I work out of town and the public transport here is a nightmare so a car is the best option. Long traffic jams, but I prefer it to 1.5 hours on the bus. Plus, it's nice to have the possibility of driving to and when I want to (though it's mainly home-work-home).
And I don't know to ride a bike :hehe: It's one of the things I regret not putting an effort back when I was younger.

Niamh. 02-03-2017 09:12 AM

I have to drive where I live really, I didn't start till I was 24 though, I was living close to the city up till then

Yeah, I spend most of my evenings and weekends dropping the kids to sports/social stuff

I'm the same. In fact I'd quite happily go back to riding in a horse drawn cart, or just riding the horse.

My sister passed her test last year. She has still yet to use a motorway as she is too scared :facepalm: Plus my dad seemed to pay her insurance for the first year, once she was presented with the insurance bill a few months back for this year she all of a sudden doesn't want to drive anymore :laugh:

I would love to drive but I can't really afford to learn at the moment
