Heck, I've been allowed to get a driver's license for over a decade in the Netherlands, but neither I nor my partner has one. Granted, most of my friends to have one, but almost none of them have a car. It helps that we live in a large city, and one that actively discourages driving and encourages public transport and cycling (even by Dutch standards), but not only is it not necessary to drive, it's often the worst transportation option.
- vanderZwan 8y agoFellow Dutch person, mid thirties and no driver's license here either. With the exception of moving between apartments I have never really felt like I missed it
- Scarblac 8y agoI got the license at 35, with kids having a car around often saves a lot of trouble. But we still only use it twice a week or so.
- Vinnl 8y agoAbsolutely, I expect to be doing the same if I ever do have kids. Primarily for e.g. holidays and such, I think.
