It would be difficult to find/pay a driver every time you need something at the store, have a medical appointment, want to get your hair cut, want to take a walk by the water, etc.

can confirm. i’m disabled, and I really shouldn’t be driving given all the medications i’m on. I have to plan two days ahead to get all my meds timed right if I want to drive a car, and I basically have to trade pain management for alertness. So I’m awake and tetchy if i’m driving.

my car weighs 3000 pounds. my bike was already 75 pounds before I slapped a motor on her. Together we’re about 300 pounds of rolling furry. We top out at 30mph, 20 if i’m not going down a hill. If i’m going to fuck up and cause an accident in traffic because my consciousness is altered, i’m the only one getting hurt.
