i used to own my own car however after the birth of my child i ended up having a lot of issues with anxiety while driving so i sold my car.  my husband has his car and i just wait to go places when he gets home and then he will just drive me.  i still get really anxious even when he is driving but at least i dont have as much pressure as when i would drive.  not only that but it saves us a ton of money on gas maintenance taxes and insurance.

We went down to one car a long time ago to save money on excise taxes, insurance, and registration.

It can be challenging to work it out, but it was much easier when I lived in a city that had great public transportation. There used to be a bus stop only one block from my house, and I loved taking public transportation.

Where we live now, there is no public transportation at all, and I find it really confining.

I have my car and my husband has his. But if we should get another car my teenager will get mine. But not until she can pay for the insurance.

I own our car. Sometimes I take the bus to teach my son how to pay fare on a bus and how to ride the bus, like sit down in a open seat and make sure you know how to get off where you need to. One day he may need this service and want him to be prepared.

Free & lazy :-[

I have a car. There isn't any public transportation out here.

Walking is good for you.

That's why America is such a fat & lazy nation; because we won't go anywhere if it means we have to USE any of that energy before it settles down into our rump!

I have a car.  The last time I rode a bus was when my brother and I used to ride the bus to town to hang out with Mother while she was working at a shoe store. That was back in the 1960s.

I own a vehicle and use this pretty much everyday. However, as to work I also rotate between the car, subway system and the bus depending on where I need to go.

I grew up having to depend on the city buses for most of my transportation, so I really appreciate having my own car as an adult.
