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?
We have very good public transport where I live, but it’s so much easier to simply drive where you need to go instead of waiting at a bus stop for 15 minutes and then still need to walk for another 10 minutes to get where you needed to go. Yes, it’s dumb and really bad for the environment, but it’s easy. And more often than not, people prioritise stuff being easy rather than environmentally friendly.
The problem here isn’t easiness but the low frequencies and bad positioning of transit in your area
