I don't drive much these days and that makes me very cranky, for many reasons.
1) I have to beg or bribe people to take me places, like the grocery store, 2) taking the bus is a frustrating and ensures that I am always really early somewhere or really late, and 3) no more random solo road-trips (not that I ever did random solo road-trips but you always want the option).
But there is one reason that I am glad that I do not drive: the New York State Thruway.
