Driving used to be a rite of passage that opened up the world and set you free. However, some members of Gen Z haven’t been eager to get their license.
A new analysis seems to back this up as a mere 3.6% of drivers in the United States were found to be 19 years old or less. That makes them the smallest age demographic next to the number of drivers who were over 80.
Besides being able to connect with friends and family without having to travel anywhere, services like Lyft and Uber have opened up new doors. Cars and insurance have also become significantly more expensive, especially in the past few years, so that is likely playing a role as well.
