Sure, but why get a licence if you know you won't have a car any time soon?

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 year ago

Because you don't want to drive privately but for work. Where you need a drivers license.

Because it's convenient to be able to drive a car? There are lots of cases when you may borrow a car to do things. Teenagers might borrow their parents car to do errands and stuff.

As someone who has absolutely no desire to ever own or drive a car, I'm getting my licence based purely on the off chance that I might need to anyway (but I'd probably just hire for a day).
