Owning a car or not?

There is also another valid reason while someone wouldn't own a car that wasn't brought up on here. And that's medical reasons. Someone who isn't actually capable of legally driving due to physical or mental problems (like blindness or near blindness for example) would have very little reason to own a vehicle. It would be a giant waste of money because they'd never get to use it unless they're wealthy enough to afford a personal driver. The problems with my vision are beyond my and even modern medicine's control yet it still doesn't keep people from looking down on your for not having your own transportation.
