So, who DOESN'T have their license??

[*LittleMissSummer*]

I bumped into my SIL in the mall the other day and she said she was going for her L's on the weekend, DP got a phone call last night from his mum saying she got it. It got me thinking maybe i should think about getting mine. Its something i have been putting off for years...

But i am curious, who doesn't have their license? is it by choice? Will you eventually get it or are you happy to get around via public transport?

My Nan never got her license, and she died a year ago aged 80. She was perfectly happy with that decision My aunty (her daughter) was on her Ls when I was in my early teens, so around her 40s-50s? I don't know how old she is

My mum was 36 when she got her p's hhehe, some week as DF too, was funny.
She put on a considerable amount of weight once she started driving everywhere because she used to walk wherever she needed to go

I only have my Ls, only got them for ID purposes. Never had an interest in driving and still not particularly a fan of it. I was close to getting my license and then I haven't driven for a year. My current motivation is to beat my brother to getting his. DH drives me everywhere, if I was single I'd have put in the effort to get it years ago I think.

Me. Don't even have my L's

[beckoes]

dont have Ls yet either. just alway done without. im a bit scared of driving to be honest but i wanted to learn this year, or atleast get Ls....will drive before im 30!!!

I didn't have mine til last year!
My DH and I had a deal we wouldn't have kids until I got my P's. To help, he bought me a car for my 30th, we paid for all of my practice to be done with an instructor so we didn't put strain on our relationship.
I got my P's 6months later and I was pregnant 6 weeks after that.

Before that I survived without driving, now I drive everyday and would be lost without it, especially with DS.
It has given me so much freedom in a way, and I loooove not needing to rely on others and public transport.

Good luck if you decide to do it

My DH doesn't have his. He moved to the city before he turned 18 for uni and was quite happy to use public transport. Still is

Ive only just got my Ls at 30 but still havnt been out in the car

[Khaleesi]

I got my L's at 16 but only got my P's at 24 while i was 39wks pregnant with DD2.
The only reason i got them was because DF booked me some driving lessons, i'd probably still be using PT if he hadn't done that for me.

I've had my L's for 4 years- driving scares me
Like a PP, my DH drives me wherever I need to go or I catch the bus.
Must get off my lazy behind and get some lessons!

Being a passenger in a car scares me way more than being the driver. I couldn't survive without my license. Living in the country makes it more of a necessity than if i was in metro area too.

I only got my liscence just over a year and a half ago. I finally bit the bullet because Jelly was going into preschool, and if I didn't drive I would have had to walk to drop her off and pick her up every time she went, rain, hail or shine - with a baby and a toddler in tow. I know the preschool is not far, but given the weather here, it wasn't a prospect I relished. Now I have my liscence I wouldn't change it for the world - it really has opened up the world for me (especially when DH disappears for army), and surprisingly, I have actually found that I enjoy driving, it is cathadic (although, the other drivers on the road can set me on edge).

I don't have my L's and I don't have a choice I would if I could

[Butterfly Dawn]

I have my learners and had never felt the need to drive- strange I know, when i look at the freedom i would've had i cant believe i didnt get a car etc. Now we have 3 kids I gonna have to drive and really wish i had mastered the skills in a civilised place but i guess there are so many bad/mad/crazy drivers here i should blend right in pmsl

[boobaloo]

god, i would go nuts without my lisence! but i love driving (most of the time). i got my p's just after my 17th, so 10 years ago! i love the freedom, the kids and i can go anywhere we want, whenever we want! and for safety reasons too, i've had to rush kids to hospital etc, and it's so much easier knowing you can just throw them in the car and go.

I didn't have my license until March 27th this year Go for it.. you won't regret it.. I left it to long and while I don't regret not getting it sooner I am SO glad I have it now.. I can go out when I want and do anything
