I was discussing this with a friend today, actually. She's learning to drive, and a few of my other friends can drive. It just costs too much, and it'd be so stressful and nervewracking, I really can't see a point to me attempting to learn at the moment.

On the other hand, although public transport can be annoying at times; it's cheaper for me to take the train/bus wherever I go simply because the cost of lessons, the car and insurance would be more than I could earn in a long time. >_>
