I have the vehicle, just not the money for the controls.... YET.

Now, if it was legal to drive a tank, then it would be no problem, buy a surplus tank, already has hand controls........ and the perfect vehicle for idiots who steal my parking place!

I have never felt any vocation to drive a car. I do not think that I would be good at it and that I might be a menace on the road. I was hit twice by a car, once when a child on my bike and once about twenty years ago as a pedestrian. I survived both encounters, obviously.

I feel safest when a twue sub is in the driver's seat.

Nor am I much of a dominant. I am rather apathic.

I bought a bicycle in February and by now have made about one thousand kilometres on it.

i'm a professional driver & believe me, there are people who just shouldn't drive...i love driving, can do upwards of 3000 miles per week & have never had an accident on the road & i've been driving for over 45 years...i'm very good at it...one of the problems is that people see driving as a right, when it's actually a privilege & requires certain skills to perform correctly...not driving doesn't make you one thing or another, it just makes you a non-driver...perhaps these men are giving implausible reasons for not driving because they believe that they will be ridiculed & probably have been in the past...

much as i love to drive, when i moved to San Francisco i sold my car & said i wouldn't bother getting another one until they developed the car that when i get to my destination, i exit the car & push a button & the car folds up into the size & weight of a briefcase that i can carry inside with me...the public transportation was very good & besides, the city is only 7X7 or so miles, so pretty much everything is within walking distance if you have the time...i averaged about 5 miles per day on foot...

contrary to some people's beliefs, a car is not an extension of one's penis.....

i don't believe there's anything wrong with not driving in and of itself. if they're not driving because they're somehow unable to keep a license or a car due to instability, unemployment, or the like, that makes a bit of a difference over personal choice, and if they use you for transportation and refuse to take responsibility for themselves, that has an effect on the landscape, as well. i don't drive out of personal choice. i've chosen not to learn - master swears He's going to get me behind a wheel sometime in the next year or two, though. at first it was fear (back when i was in high school and everyone was doing it); now it's mostly just that i've gotten used to the pace of my life and relying on public transportation and i honestly am just not interested. it's an expense i don't much care to worry about at the moment; although public transportation has its drawbacks, at the moment i'm also more comfortable with it, and disability has changed my perspective somewhat as well. i hold down a job and take care of my life, though, and i certainly don't rely on master to be my transportation except when we are going somehwere together, and even then, i would give Him money for gas if He didn't insist on paying for everything in the first place. i think one can be a perfectly responsible, functional human being (dominant, submissive, or vanilla) without driving. now, if you live in a place where it's absolutely impossible to live without driving, then whether or not that makes him a capable person depends on how he's coped without having a car and whether the lifestyle works for him. then again, it may just be a matter of compatibility. if you want someone who drives, that's a compatibility problem - but it doesn't necessarily make the dominant who doesn't drive somehow less dominant.

respectfully,
a'ishah.

Write in your profile that you are looking for a dom that has a licence and car if this is such an important issue for you, which it sounds like it is.

I was hit twice by a car, once when a child on my bike

I got hit by a car on my bicycle when I was 11 years old. Actually, I hit the right front fender going down a hill and bounced off of the car. One of my childhood chums decided it would be funny to rub motor oil on the front breaks of my bike earlier. We were going down this hill at full speed. I tried to stop, and BAM right into the front fender of a Ford LTD some teenager was driving.

I didn't get anything but a few scratches and bruises. The teenager that got of the car looked like he was about to have a heart attack. The whole neighborhood came running out to see if I was dead. My buddy that rubbed the oil on my breaks was nowhere to be seen of course. LOL.

Well, I'm a national civil servant/policy advisor. I don't know about the US, but down here that definately doesn't require a drivers license 9which i don't have). It only requires being at work during working hours. Visist outside the department are usually by public transport anyway. now, wouldn't that be a decent job?

None of the jobs I ever worked required a driver's liscence. My current job is two miles away. The others were all acessible by bus. And I am moving towards self employment again.

Not having a liscence is not the end of the world for EVERYONE.

Yep. We have 7 employees or so (general contractor) and two of them right now have no license. No big deal, just get their ass to work and don't cause me any headache over it. Usually at any given time, someone is without a license. Especially in the field of construction.

Oh yes that is a big one. That is one of our guy's reason right now. I have to attach his wages but he owes in the thousands so I see him hoofing it for a while.

lol funny post. Its because they have tech disease and cant deal with non-structured or low structured enviroments and are hypersensitive at having been in accidents. They over react ect. A perfect example is Bill Gates who 5 years ago still had not had a drivers license. Believe it or not a lot of Doms are functionaly Autistic which is why they are "DOMS" this is where it shows (no drivers license, few friends, cant negotiate, low income for education level or have "helpers / assistants" who take care of common daily responsibilities)

I have a licence but no car. Here, it's quicker to walk. If I need one, I plan and hire. I got rid of my car a couple of years ago, it was such waste of money.

If I lived rural, I'd still need one. The cost of running a car exceeds the extra cost of city living. I've gained time I'd otherwise waste commuting.

So, no, there's nothing wrong with a master who doesn't conform to expectations. It's probably a good sign; it'll help you realise that dom(me)s don't obey subs' expectations, they make their own decisions.

:P interesting
I never learned to drive though I tried (15 hours learning= 5 accidents), I took computers in collage but worked at min wage jobs up until last year, I have very few friends, and not very good at common daily responsibilities(at least of my own) .

Everything on that list describes me except.. I'm a sub :) guess we need a new thread "is there something wrong with a sub that can't drive"
:P

I consider driving a basic life skill, like cooking. You don't have to be a french chef, but can you make yourself dinner?

Where I live I can walk around alot, I don't always need to drive (it's good for the environment and my own body to walk). But if I need to drive, I can. I can't imagine not having that control.

Bill Gates was notorious for his fast driving in New Mexico (the original home of Microsoft). He got plenty of tickets, and had a license way back when.

The semi-autistic thing sounds JUST like an ex-master. Why on earth would that be common among doms?? That's scaryyy!

Two of the guys both expected me to do all the visiting. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to see each other as we were in different parts of this rural state. What do you all think of that?

I can't help it, I have to argue with the sex thing..I have a lot of military people in my family. I'll start off by saying I'm a normal Christian, I go to various denominations and I'm not part of any cult. My family didn't even tell me about the birds and the bees (a bit too shy about such talk, lol) but yet my dad, uncles, brother, and grandfather all just waited til marriage (and all the girls too) because they thought it was right, personally for Christian reasons. I'm waiting too. My grandfather, for one was in the navy for two major wars, and was in the navy for a long time following that. And his brother. They were out to sea for long periods of time. They didn't have sex, they didn't get addicted to any drugs... a beer occassionally, and letters home.. and they sent most of their paychecks to their mom til they both got married when they were home on leave.. And they were loyal to their wives back home. And they are not asexual, as evidence by my being born. :P My parents didn't tell me not to have sex directly, even, and set few rules for me because they trusted me to make the right decisions for myself (maybe that's why I like the structure of a dominant) but I always felt like it was very important, and I disagree that good Christians have lots of pre-marital sex. Many Christians who call themselves that are not real Christians, and many others let themselves continue to sin, and when you talk to them, usually admit they have no good reason for their behavior. Most of my friends have sex constantly - but the Christian ones definitely think it's wrong. Biblically it is. Most Americans call themselves Christians.. few read the Bible and pray on a regular basis or try to live in a Christ-like way. They might have good morals, like anyone else, but there's no difference. Waiting til marriage, and being a virgin is hard - for one, besides the sexual temptation, it makes us feel separated from the world. Among many denominations, among the people I regularly see really going to Bible studies and such - it's pretty darn common that people are virgins or were until they got married, or stopped having sex when they became Christian or got serious about it. And it's not a new thing, at all. I'm sad to hear our tax dollars pay to get army officers telling their crew to get drunk and get laid. That wouldn'tve happened in my grandfather's day..

Hermione, so what, you think you won't get into heaven if you have sex too many times?
St. Peter; "Hermione! Come on into heaven!"
NO, just kidding, you had sex three more times than allowed, go to hell, Ha Ha!"
Hey, if you get "raptured" can I have your car?
