No I can't afford a car plus risking it is not worth it.

Man I really really want to drive now, My dad tought me how to drive this past month and im good at it ( cough cough) lol well i am i just need to learn how to calculate and stay on my lane, and not drive like if the street was mine lol. But yeah i'm really thinking of getting a car now, with what? idk but i will get one. My aunt promised me one for my graduation but thats to long to wait i want it NOW ! so that baby can be waiting right there in the garage ready to be driven, after Dream Act is passed and not worry about getting deported, but tickets, oh and of caorse the other drivers too

I do... I started driving as soon as I turned 16. I don't have a drivers license but I try to not put limitations on myself due to my status. Yes, I'm breaking the law by driving without a license but at the same time I refuse to deprive myself of the privilege of driving... my status puts enough limitations on my everyday life.

Before I had my car I took the bus to get to the state fair and I ended up at a cemetary, hah... that was the last time I took the bus.

Yes I can drive, I used to drive legally in high school but I came to college and driving was unnecessary.

I just take the bus to work and wherever else I need to go that is not near campus.

I know some of you guys might hate me for saying this but it's PURELY... PURELY... PURELY my opinion:

Driving is overrated.
Cost for gas, lease/payment, insurance.
Hassle of accidents, parking, repairs.

My DL is more useful to me to get into bars and get some awesome beverages. :)

It all depends on where you live, many of us are stuck in suburbia with none if any of public transportation passing through, so at that point driving becomes pretty much a necessity.

No, because I think that as soon as I started to drive, I'd hit at least five other vehicles. I'm not going to put the general public at risk like that.

yes, I do drive. And I try to be as careful as I can. No, it doesn't mean I go at 15 mph all the time. I just try to blend in with the rest of the traffic

Same here, its important that if we drive we do it within the speed limit but NEVER under the speed limit because it just makes it obvious. Well thats my opinion.:idea:
