[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here’s a worst case scenario: I have a relative, aged 40, who to this day hasn’t learned to drive and it’s seriously limited her opportunities in work, dating, and life. Like a PP she grew up in NYC and lived in walkable cities - until a few years ago, when life circumstances brought her to a non-walkable suburb. Her life has become very small. Even though she would like a new job, she’s limited to fully remote options, which are not nearly as abundant as even a couple of years ago. I would force the issue, frankly. It’s a basic life skill. [/quote] She could always learn, she's only 40. My parents had a friend who got his license at 65 (also NYC). I think he had one when young but it had been lapsed 40 odd years. [/quote] Learning is very hard past 30s. You are much more aware of the risk and danger, and inner ear viscosity means it feels worse. [/quote]
