Poll of the Day > Here's my first red flag, lol, I don't drive.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm probably never going to get laid because of it.

Depends where you live. If you can reliably get around without driving, you're fine. Plenty of girls will be happy to be walked home instead of driven if it's a pleasant walk. If you pretty much need a car to get anywhere, that becomes more of an issue, though at the same time plenty of women drive these days and don't see any value in gendering basic transportation to such an extent as expecting the man to do all the driving for dates.

how old are you?

my boyfriend cant drive and i can't either. we just bike everywhere. its way better anyway

People who live in a major city can spend most of their lives never knowing how to drive.

People who live in most suburbs will probably die in about a month if they can't drive and can't get other people to drive for them.

Services like Uber and Lyft are sort of breaking that down, though. In the ideal future a lot of people are pushing for, no one is going to know how to drive because all the driving services will be automated and personal car ownership will be either prohibitively expensive or outright banned.

If it hadn't been for that, you'd been married long time ago.

I drive everywhere and I cant get laid dont worry about it

You lose a lot of face if you call a girl and tell her you'll pedal on over.

The only people actually pushing for that are tech bros that are convinced that AI will solve all the world's problems and yet seem to keep suggesting "futuristic" solutions that most just reinvent trains (like "imagine a line of AI-powered cars that all starts and stops uniformly like they were a bunch of train cars"). Even the staunchest urbanists recognize that there is a place for personal cars, just not as the default mode of transportation within cities because that's a hideously inefficient use of valuable space and the required infrastructure for that default will never be sustainable. Public transit can be automated (and in many cases, trains already are), but self-driving personal-scale vehicles have very little value that can't already be provided by a combination of trains, buses, and bikes for far cheaper. The only remaining value would be the occasional case when people actually take advantage of the "go wherever you want" aspect of having a car, and in that case either personally owning a vehicle (if that aspect is frequently used) or relying on a car share is still almost always going to be significantly more cost-effective than something self-driving.

I have a friend that thinks like that, he also could drive but is too lazy to actually do it despite me, and other friends, offering to teach him. The sad part is he could get a lot of girls without a car, thanks to his golden voice, he just doesn't have the confidence to use his talents.
