Do you have your license? If so, do you like driving?
I got my license when I was sixteen, but I've hardly driven since turning 18. I despise cars for a host of reasons, a couple being that they mess up the environment and kill a high amount of people in extremely inhumane ways.
Driving is very stressful for me and I don't enjoy any minute of my time spent behind the wheel. I know some people love driving, and that's fine, but I view cars as being what they are: A means of transportation which allow us to travel to our destination.
In my ideal world humans would be able to warp to their destination.
My dad's organising driving lessons for me before Christmas...I'm not dreading them, but I will stay forever faithful to my bike! No Dutch person would turn their backs on it...for a car. Lovely false pride. Anyway. I'm terribly uncoordinated, but I can play badminton so I might be able to drive all right. I doubt I'll be properly driving until I'm out of uni, even though I could get the car quite often because it hardly ever gets used. My mum's had her fair share of accidents and hates driving, and my dad commutes and takes the bike everywhere else.
My dad tried to teach me one summer, but I almost ran over my little cousin and was headed for the lake...
