Worth noting that like 25% of the population live in the 2-3 cities with acceptable public transit options. Another sizeable chunk are either too young or too old to drive, so a third being unable to drive isn’t shocking or that bad honesty

Being too young or too old to drive shouldn't exclude you from full participation in society in the ways you are otherwise able. You should be able to go grocery shopping even if your reflexes aren't up to the task of driving. You should be able to go to your baseball game without getting a ride from your parents.
