Is it odd if a 42 year old can't drive or is that just me? (Page 2)

Question

I don't mean doesn't have a license I mean can't never has but has always lived in a country where it's normal for adults to drive

TwinkleLily5 · Answer

It’s odd because by adult age most people have learned to drive. Is it Normal for someone not to know how to drive as an adult? Yes, not everyone had someone one to teach them or the courage to do it on their own.

I do not think that it is odd if a 42 year can't drive. They might not be interested or sse are scared but whatever it is. It's not odd. They can use transportation or I don't know.. walk if it's nearby. It's up to them. So no it is not odd

Some people live in public transportation-provided areas such as San Fransisco and New York City. It is easiest to take a cab, subway or trolley to work on a daily basis.

In some huge cities like London, UK it is nearly impossible, to drive and even less possibilities to park at our designation. I would not drive there, if I would live in a city like that, only while visiting.

I drive and in last ~17 years only 1 month had no access to a vehicle.

It is not odd to me not to drive, and know a lot of people who do not drive.

Most common reasons: to expensive to get a license, rich enough to be driven around, already lost a license to drive,...

Not particularly. My mother never learned to drive. Some people would just be a menace on the roads.

My aunt and mother in law never drove but they grew up in the city and you did not really need a car.

Bklynbadboy12 · Answer

Nope thats not odd at all I live in New York City where getting around is not a problem so some people never learn how to drive

boxxie2002 · Answer

In this day and age it would be considered unusual. I do know a few people who have their license but do not feel comfortable or confident on the roads they choose not to drive.

There's a lot of us nutters on the road 😀

spartan55 · Answer

Very odd. I honestly don't know how someone would function day to day, unless they lived in NYC etc.

IAMNathanael · Answer

Unless you're in a densely populated area, nope. Actually I can't drive, maybe that's a bit odd.
