Two fifths of Brits aged 25 have not got a driving licence, claims new research.
Voucher Codes Pro found 41 per cent of young drivers have not passed their driving test, with many blaming cost for the many reason they can’t get behind the wheel.
Other reasons included being too nervous, while 47 per cent said they preferred to use public transport.
The study also questioned Brits aged 45 or over and discovered only 28 per cent did not have a full driving licence.
A spokesperson for Voucher Codes Pro said: “It would seem that more and more young adults are foregoing driving lessons to focus on other things. What’s sad is [that] so many still deem driving as a necessity but cannot afford to actually go through with passing or owning a car.”
Overall, 81 per cent of those involved in the survey believed being able to drive is a vital life skill.
