I suppose people lose interest in driving, myself included, I can see why some people choose not to own and run a car.

Makes sense to some I guest.
it used to be quite common in the seventies over here too. People would have hired cars instead of taxis if they were going out a fair distance from home. (I do it sometimes when on holiday, sometimes works out cheaper depending on where I am staying)
