How do you get about and are you happy with your mode of transport?
I used my legs, pushbike, moped, buses and trains until 17 years ago when I got my 1st car.
Now my car has died and I don't anticipate being able to drive again, for various reasons.
I'm wanting to make the best of this - far less expense and what I find the unpleasant experience of driving and grappling with other aggressive drivers.
I might get fitter.
I do have a couple of people who would be willing to give me lifts when necessary.
Any upsides anyone can see to me being car free, but also, what about you?
ps. I no longer work, so that's a huge advantage when not having your own transport.
I always prefer trains to buses. The cost is higher but looks at the advantages. I travel with a better class of people. The poor, smelly and homeless cannot afford train travel. Trains are faster, no traffic jams. They have toilets.
A luxury first class train compartment beside the first class lounge at the station both ends with people to take my luggage and my chauffeur driven limousine with a glass of champagne on arrival, as I’m super classy - think Alexis from Dynasty lol
