Unfortunately in South Africa (well in Johannesburg, pretoria, pietersburg to mention a few major cities) the public transport system is just not good enough and safe enough to use everyday...

I could not wait till my 18th birthday to get my licence, so that i could move as i please... without it in most places in johannesburg... you will be stranded.

Ok, schoolbuses run independently, so that is fine... but the general puclic can obviously not use that...
We do have metro buses too which are fine and generally safe, but they dont cover the whole city <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> so for people who live in the nort/west of JHB, cant use them, while the south/east is well covered.
TAXI's.... welll need i say more..... NAHHHH wont take them anywhere....

I would say, unless you live in Cape town or bloemfontein, you NEED a lisence.... otherwise you stuffed....

So yea... had my drivers since my senior school year (but been able to drive since i was 10!!!!! - i grew up on a farm
