18 Things That Inevitably Happen When You're A Person Who Doesn't Drive

    Brrroom brrroom, I'm in me mum's car (because she's giving me a ride to work).

    1. You kinda want to die every time you have to ask "CAN I GET A RIDE?"

    2. You're often so grateful for a ride that you don't actually care that much about the mess in other people's cars.

    3. And you know that, even with a designated driver, you'll always need a plan B when it comes to getting home.

    4. But you can take comfort in knowing that you'll NEVER have to be the designated driver yourself.

    5. Surge pricing is your biggest enemy.

    6. You tend to know places by landmarks, not street names, which makes it kind of hard to give directions.

    7. You have an intense love/hate relationship with public transportation, because even though it helps you get around...

    8. …and you feel proud that you’re doing your part to help the environment…

    9. ...but you know too well that, yes, some cities' public transportation systems are the actual devil.

    10. You've most definitely canceled plans because getting there and back is just too difficult.

    11. You know that it's honestly kind of fun to complain about "the car industry."

    12. And sure, those of you who bike can get REALLY INTO BIKING.

    13. You understand better than most that getting to know a city by walking >>>> driving through it.

    14. It's hard not to go crazy from the number of times people have told you "OK, but you HAVE to drive at some point."

    15. People pointing out that "even idiots can drive" is never helpful, because YEAH, THAT'S EXACTLY THE PROBLEM.

    16. Other people have just gotta learn that you can't be expected to get mad about gas prices.

    17. You CANNOT WAIT until driverless cars become a reality for everyone.

    18. And you've often found yourself asking why teleportation doesn't exist.

    That's about it. So... can I get a ride, by any chance?
