Any seniors who don't have cars?

Pre-College Issues High School Life
21

<p>I haven't ever ridden on a school bus... I know, kind of odd, but all the kids in our court go to a different HS from the one we are zoned for so there are no busses for us. Then in elem and middle school I went to private school so I was either driven or I walked. </p>

<p>Where I live now, it's not rural but there isn't really anything you'd want to go to for quite a distance so not having a car means you stay at home. No bus service and it'd take you hours to ride your bike anywhere(and I don't think you're allowed to ride a bike on state highways) Luckly, most kids have cars so if one doesn't s/he is well taken care of. I do have a car but because I am younger then most in my grade, I was carless for a year when all my friends were out driving.</p>

<p>I don't have a car ... yet, but I will soon!</p>

<p>As far as transportation, I get pickups, walk home, take cabs (rarely, but I do use cabs often to go places like.. restaurants and such.. went to the movies today with a friend).. and public transportation ala MTA = Metro.</p>

<p>One of the perks living in Los Angeles.</p>

23

<p>I don't have a license, and we don't have public transportation, so I usually get a ride or do nothing at all.</p>

24

<p>My brother drove my family's one car into a ditch 3 weeks ago and it has yet to be fixed. So, in the sub-zero weather, I am stuck walking everywhere.</p>

<p>bah i'm such a loser.</p>

<p>I have a Metrocard.</p>

31

<p>i have my license and a car, but i almost never use it. i just don't like to drive. i think it's scary...</p>

32

<p>I have my license and a car. My sister and I share the car though. It's fine though because we're ALWAYS together (we're twins). School is about a half hour drive away (without traffic) and living in LA a car is absolutley necessary esp. for us. Before I got my license, I had to wait for my mom to pick me up from school. I'd have to wait sometimes till like 7 o'clock. It was a real pain. I think my mom was happier than I was when my sister and I got our license, she immediately bought us a car and sent us on our way!</p>

33

<p>I live in a city. I take the subway--and so does everyone I know. Maybe two or three of my friends have bothered to get their licenses, and not a one of them actually has a car. It's always weird for me to hear about people my age driving; in my mind, driving is something your parents do.</p>

<p>Yeah, I got a car before I got my license actually. It's a POS, doesn't like to start, leaks oil, has a 5 tone paint job, and the front bumper is falling off. If I lived in a bigger city I would prefer to not have a car, but our city trans. is terrible, and my parents have jobs that require a lot of driving, and being in different cities a lot of times so I need my own car to get around.</p>
