How much you drive your car 🚗?

[Awantika03]

[Lliam]

I drove over 50k a year in an all expenses paid company car as a field adjust for an insurance company for 30 years.
I retired in 2010 and still drove quite a bit in my personal car. But, about 5 years ago I started driving way less.

I bought a fully loaded 2010 Toyota Rav4 Limited, 6 cyl, 4WD with 83k, original miles in 2020. I have only put 35k on it since then.

My wife and I have gone on several few trips, but I often go weeks without driving any further than my mail box, which is just over 1 mile round trip (my driveway is 0.4 miles).
We live in a rural area and are around 20 miles from cities.

I drive around 30 miles one way to the eye doctor every few months. I run occasional errands and I drive when we go out to eat. But my wife works in town four days a week, so she does the grocery shopping and errands while there.
I often go a month without filling my tank.

I am on the go lol. If i'm going someplace , i'm going to the gas station first and then wherever it does I have to go .

I work for myself so I drive to my Job Sites When I'm Hungry. I go to the grocery store l o l if i'm going to see I drive

I would really like to spend the six thousand dollars and buy one of those flying tesla cars

All it ISIS basically a roll cage, a car body and a drone.\nThat will hold a person's weight but it would be fun. How much do you drive

[FreyaRed]

Every day but not much. It has 41k km in over 4 years. Selling it now where the price is 30-40% of new car but it practically still smells inside like a new car with this low millage wouldn't be really smart.

[rominuser]

Which car?

[Crimsyjo]

Everyday up until last week cos I'm now banned for 18 months :(

[Awantika03]

Why you are banned 🚫

[Crimsyjo]

"Failure to provide" ...

[Bricealan]

@Crimsyjo "... proof of insurance?

[Crimsyjo]

@Bricealan haha breath test when pulled at 4am, tired and hungry and cold. Later I did test at station and was NOT over the limit but they said tough. Too late as I failed the chances before.
I told them multiple times I was cold and effecting my ability to test.
I requested my cctv footage to show in court but they first said that they need 30 days to provide it but set court in 25 days. Court denied an adjournment.
Next the police said they can't provide the footage for an open case.
Er... so tell how this works. I can't secure the EVIDENCE that would exonerate me for court because of court?
So now courts finished I've requested again. I may go back to court to contest the charge.
But what a UK law system to deny access to evidence ugh

[Bricealan]

@Crimsyjo My attorney told me if ever stopped, and I was 'possibly' over the limit, to say "Yes" if on any medication. When asked WHAT I was on, tell 'em I don't know, my Dr. prescribed it for me. Somehow later that could be used to nullify the breathalyzer result

[Crimsyjo]

@Bricealan but if they ask for evidence from doctor?

[Bricealan]

@Crimsyjo I would consult with a DUI attorney, and give him that information, i. e. 'that you take meds from your Dr." and see if the attorney can fly with that and get you off of the DUI.

[Crimsyjo]

@Bricealan well technically I wasn't even DUI as my result was under the limit when I finally got a result.
But the punishment is for not complying. But I did comply.
However to get a solicitor to fight my corner would cost me over £6000 which is much more than the cost of sucking up the punishment and no guarantee of no punishment anyways if they lose.

[dislikesmath]

Every day I drive since 2009 and quite more since 2020 when we started caring for foster kids. I'm tired but only I can legally do it and safely in my family. I can't remember the last time I was a passenger for 30 minutes, plus it definitely beats walking 😅.

[OneViewpoint]

These days, I work from home a lot. When I travel to an office, most of it is on a train other than a 13 mile drive to the train station. So my overall car use is down to about 5,000 miles or 8,000 km per year. And I'm loving not being on the roads here!

[Tarifa]

Several times a day. Professional reasons, shopping and a teenage daughter all contribute to this. I don't exactly live in a remote area, but public transport is not an option when time is short.

I reckon I use the car six days a week and put in some 15,000 km / 9,000 miles a year.

[AviatorTom]

Now that I am retired, I don't drive my car much at all. When my wife and I go out, we take her car. Mine sits parked a lot, maybe 2000 miles (~3000 km) per year. When I was working, I almost always lived within a 30-minute drive (home-to-work), and averaged around 7000 miles (~10,000 km) per year.

[Middle_Sch_Whirl_Grl]

Since im starting. sleep awat college in January I will be although the. T. is. very. convenient too

[WonderingManII]

I used to drive it everyday to work. Now I only drive it a couple times a week. That is until I get a new job,

[RandomGirl42]

As little as possible 'cuz it's a 98 Jeep held together with duct tape, chicken wire and hope.

[Asb_Samson]

I drive enough to enjoy it, but not so much that I get tired of it 😄 How about you? Long-drive lover or city-drive person?

[Bricealan]

@awantika03 Three hundred and fifty miles a week for work, and probably another 50-75 for shopping etc.

[Levin]

About 5000 miles a year. I live half an hour's drive away from work.

[serious]

Less than 2 days a week and barely for 20 minutes.

[Staximus]

Maybe about 70 miles a week going to and from my jobs. A few more miles for going to the grocery store a few times, and maybe to get some take out or fast food a couple times a month.

[dean55au]

I drive just about every day unless the weather is nice then I'll ride my Harley instead...

[Shiprex]

Often enough when weather is bad. 5 or 6 times per week perhaps these days.

[Dargil]

Commuting. Average 30 miles a day. Occasional day trips.
