Hope the wife's ok. I'm thoroughly enjoying my first summer of proper driving!
I wish I was purple, because I'm feeling blue. I'm not looking for love, but a good fuck'll do.

Life without a car is taking some getting used to.

Anyone else on here who lives without a car?
Chris, that is so scary! I am glad that all in the car are OK though.

Personally I am totally spoiled and love having my car. I remember the days when walking was my main form of transportation or a bike. Now a days it is all about the car. I live in a smallish town where a car is more necessary than a large town/city. The public transit is pretty crap here. I have a few friends who don't drive though and live in metropolitan cities, it works well for them since their public transit is ace.

Chris good to read that family is OK after that accident

As a person who was not using a car until his 28 and having a car the last 2 years I must say
that this damn wheeled thing changed my life
Well OK Computer changed my life a car cannot do this but anyway it was a major change.

Living in a town and working in nearby villages (sometimes in different school the same day)
then I must say that it sure is a great help. Saving time and not getting exhausted by moving with
buses taxis etc really changes the quality of life.

The only con I can think of is that I dont walk that much now
And I am a part of the pollution problem but when I get back at my home city
then I use the bus so that makes me a better person (or not?)

Glad to hear everyone is okay. I cannot imagine not having a car, if I lived in a large town with mass transit I guess it would not be so bad, but it would be a real culture shock to me. Will insurance not cover the replacement costs of getting a new one?
