text: buying a car and still have to pay all those extra money is a a pain and a waste money. Those money could got to your kids college funds or for vacations , putting yourself in a situation to have too much in your plate is not worth it ,why be always tense when we can be happier . That is too much money just on cars who will bring more trouble then anyone deserve . "A study last year found hat driving by young people decreased 23 percent between 2001 and 2009 " young people have found out its not that fun having to drive around . Most likely as soon as you can drive your parents leave all the responsibilities on you ,starting with the groceries then dropping your young sibling somewhere to others thing. There's also the gas money , the car accidents and if you take a light the tickets bills  and the money for when you taking the highway . People shouldn't have all those trouble coming with the car , thats why the percentage reduce because most people now just take the bus or walk .
