<p>I got my driver’s license a few weeks before I went to college. Where I live it’s not a huge deal, public transport is pretty good and I could usually get a ride from friends/family. I have my license now but still no car… my parents won’t buy me one, I don’t want to spend ages saving up for one, and insurance for me if I owned my own car would be a few hundred dollars a month. I think $300 was the last quote I got. Not for the six month coverage but for each individual month! I often wish I had a car though… practically every other kid in my high school got one when they got their licenses :|</p>
<p>Comparatively, a motorcycle is much cheaper and the insurance is a hell of a lot cheaper (something like $70/mo for me). Yeah they’re dangerous, but still, the added mobility of having a motorcycle over not having any motor vehicle is tempting.</p>
