Not yet able to go carless, but at this point, avoiding driving by paying with $ for rideshare or with time for using transit is the biggest indulgence in my life. Can’t believe I used to enjoy driving at one point. I hate it now.
If I didn’t have kids, I’d be pretty much carless. I OneWheel downtown to office and back, Uber or carpool everywhere else. Driving kids to school/activities still requires a car. I don’t like driving, and I abhor parking.
Yeah 80% of my hatred is parking related. Don’t mind driving too much in say midwestern suburbs where it’s never an issue. Circling around downtowns for awkward parallel parking spots curbside and then giving up and taking sine $20/hr structure (if ones even available) 🤬🤬
Free parking garages in gentrified midwestern "cities" are pretty great. Always* tons of spaces, no gates--drive in and out, zero stress...
*not always, but usually
