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?

  • If you are doing fine without one and feel the way you describe then there is probably no point paying for lessons, insurance and a car.

    Sometimes a drivers license can be good career wise though so it can be good to have in the back pocket.
