Plenty of people using buses/other forms of public transport do so to get to work (or elsewhere) as it is more convenient or cheaper than using a car. Doesn't make them losers in life. And even if someone is using public transport because they are not some SN overwhelming success in life, so what. I suppose it depends upon how you measure life being a success.

As for me. I will say for the record I am not what most on here would class as someone who has 'made it' in life, anyhow... Even if I wanted to drive, I couldn't at present due to my epilepsy. There could be plenty of more successful people out there in much the same position, but oh no, everyone who rides a bus etc. is some lower life form.

Perhaps, just to avoid being seen as some pond life (if I cared) I should just lie to the DVLA, go ahead and drive about putting people's lives at risk, much the same as a business owner I know did after he had a seizure (until he was persuaded otherwise) because presumably he was 'too good' to travel with us mere commoners.

Even if I could drive, despite how people might judge me, I'd still use the metro to get to work as it would still most likely work out cheaper and it's less hassle (unless there are delays etc.). If I could drive and only had the bus as an option, I would use the car. Not because I'm too much of a snob, but because the bus service isn't good enough from where I live.
