Disclaimer: I’m not from the US.

As a student in a relatively large-ish city, I’ve been doing fine with public transportation. I’m not particularly interested in driving because of (no particular order):

  • environmental impact (in part mitigated by EVs)
  • ‘severe’ ADHD; I would never be relaxed driving
  • safety; I don’t trust other drivers to follow the rules properly

Should I still get a driver’s license sooner than later?

    What city do you live in? Do you ever travel interstate in the US? I don’t know many US cities that have adequate enough public transit to really thrive without a drivers license, but if you were living out of country or specifically NYC then no duh, I wouldn’t drive either.
