I can drive and I have to waste HOURS of my life on the public trains only because there is no parking. And guess what... now they have taken parking away from the train stations so I have to drive 30 minutes to get to a train station with parking even though there is a train station near my home with insufficient parking.

Oh don't get me started... I lose 1 hour every commute to stupidity and that is if it is on time, which, it never is. In the winter I have to freeze and sometimes get frost bite because the train doesn't show up on time.

You shouldn't be scared to learn to drive late in life. I knew someone else who had the same problem but I had to break off talking to her because she refused to learn. Oh and she did have a mother willing to teach her but she just was scared. Just remember that driving isn't as hard as you think. When I learned I was obsessed with doing everything right. It wasn't until I relaxed and just tried not to hit anyone that I got better.
