A recent article highlights the growing trend of young people in the UK opting to forego driving lessons and owning cars due to the high costs associated with them. Many see driving as a luxury rather than a necessity, and the decision to learn to drive and own a car is often dictated by the individual’s financial situation and their future prospects.
For some, such as the husband of an American wife in the article, owning a car is an expensive luxury that they cannot justify. However, if circumstances were to change, such as the addition of a child to the family, it may become more of a necessity.
Others, like 25-year-old engineering student Agnes Nwabia, view driving as key to their future prospects. Nwabia only recently passed her driving test after waiting eight years due to the high costs associated with learning to drive and owning a car. She sees driving as essential for the many graduate roles she is looking at outside of London and believes that not having a full license could limit her employment opportunities.
The article highlights the balance between luxury and necessity in the decision to learn to drive and own a car. While some may view it as a luxury, others see it as key to their future prospects and employment opportunities. Ultimately, the individual’s financial situation and future goals play a significant role in the decision-making process.
