My friends said I’d get bored of it eventually, spoiler: they’re never right, yet I’ve been doing 500 miles a week for a few months and it’s still so much fun. I don’t care about the weather or the traffic I just like being in the car.

I hate it. I'm a good driver, but it just stresses me out. Having all the adrenaline firing to pay attention is exhausting.

Add to that all the people on the road that do not give a shit about anyones safety, and I would sell my car tomorrow, if our public transport wasn't so bad.

That sucks that you don’t enjoy it and that public transport is a no go. I am blessed that all my life I’ve had access to amazing public transport.

Had it not been for a new job I’d probably never have realised how much I liked to drive.

Yup. The average road user is very selfish, but I like to exercise positive intent and people may have reasons for doing stupid stuff (within reason).
