I feel so trapped without a driving license... can't go anywhere...

I think everyone has a driver's license at 16 here in the US, but I'm already over 18 with no license... :(

I took driving school at 14, parents also tutored me. Got my learner's and six months later my limited operator's license (IDK if other states do this, but SD used to let 14- and 15-year-olds drive alone but only during daylight hours). Got my full license at 16.

I don't use it. I rarely drive. I grew up getting around by bicycle, and I still do at 40. You can go places with a bike you can't in a car, and you'll have more fun getting there, and be in a better mood when you get there.

    Neighbor, I live in Chicago. Before that, I lived in South Dakota.

    Biking keeps you warm.

    I biked year round for close to fifteen years up in Canada. If you're cold, you're not pedaling fast enough.
