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?

    Honestly it depends on how good the public transport is in your area. If it’s decent then it might be an unnecessary expense. If you do want to learn to drive at some point though I have heard it’s better to do it earlier rather than later as it gets harder to learn.
