Perhaps in America, but you can certainly "exist" in virtually any European city without a car. Anecdotally, I have managed to "exist" for the past four years without owning a car. I know how to drive one and possess a driving license, but have chosen not too.

I don't think most educated people think that you need one as much in every other country.
- santoshalper 9y agoIt even depends on where you live in the US. But mostly, a car is a virtual necessity.
- Haul4ss 9y agoYou can exist in many American cities without a car. However, America is a gigantic land mass and we are spread over areas of very different population density. You may not need a car in NYC, but you need one if you live in the middle of Iowa.
