        16 yr old stepdaughter saved more than $6k this year. Granted, she lives rent-free but worked 2 minimum wage type jobs and still spends money on stuff she wants. My own daughter saved $8k and got a new car.

        The only day my mom ever let me skip a day of school was on my 16th birthday in 1975. She knew how important it was to me.

        You mean they can't find good paying jobs like previous generations, or unlike previous generations are saddled w/onerous lifelong debilitating student loan debt, so see no avenue to afford both a car payment, insurance, and maintanence, so instead demand better public transport

        Minimum wage is as low as 7.25 an hour in some places and the used car market was obliterated by cash for clunkers and skyrocketing new car prices. Plus insurance, fuel, maintenance (since most modern cars are hard to fix at home). Yeah no wonder

        I see articles that claim it's cheaper to run a car than use public transport, but that's never been true for me.

        I got my license 13 years ago, took test after 12 lessons, cost me 15-20 a lesson depending. The cost now of learning to drive has exceeded relevant other costs, no way young people would want to drive when its gone up by so much
