I hate public transport so much . Can't drive.

[Freeeeeeedom]

I'm so fed up with it. They are over packed, often smelly from people. On almost every journey there's a strong smell of weed. Always running late or missing out buses. A journey that takes 15 min by car takes 50 min by bus with changes .

I wish so much that i could drive . I failed my driving test in an automatic over 8+ times . I did have one lesson about 5 years ago but I almost ran over someone. I'm just not safe on the roads. So it's not meant to be . Im so pissed off with myself.

Ride a bicycle
Ride a small scooter/motorbike you can get electric ones
Learn to drive try again
It is in your hands

@Freeeeeeedom I'm London too. I actually think the buses (and the rest) is actually a pretty awesome service - lots of it, regular, fairly cheap.
It's just the people 😂

Look into intensive driving courses. Put your past experience firmly behind you. It will make you a more considerate driver which is no bad thing.

My dd is having lessons . And her instructor was saying I should try . But he probably knows how much I have failed and wants my money 🤣

I think it is good bit at the same time it's not. It's OK of you have a choice of buses . And if they are empty 🤣

It's never too late to learn !! I am currently teaching my 77 year old neighbour. I have taught all the kids and my DH over the years and my neighbour is by far the best student I've ever helped to drive .

Bite the bullet and learn to drive.

Do automatic in a small car.

Have faith.

That's what I failed in 🤣

I passed my test 4th time at age 41- but I was never confident and don’t drive much now.

I think it’s a myth that everyone can be a confident safe driver -why on earth would that be the case? We’re all different

the answer is that public transport needs to be much better!

@AboutVattime I couldn't afford the costs now unfortunately (lessons, buying a car, petrol, insurance, maintenance etc) 🙁

Try again. Be bold.
