I have the option of taking discounted driving lessons through school. I am one of the few people my age who flatly rejected this offer. I don’t want to learn to drive. There are a few reasons for this that I’ve explained to people- traffic freaks me out and I’m scared of somehow killing someone- but although both are true, the main reason I don’t want to drive is the temptation.
If I had a car and the ability to drive, it would be all too simple to purposely crash into a wall or something really fast (although I’d never let it kill another, I’d make sure no other cars or people were around), a car accident so terrible it would certainly kill me.
I need to avoid that temptation, because it would be all too easy to make it look like an accident and it seems like the most appealing death to me right now. And I have to try and stay alive for the sake of others, no matter how hard it gets. I just can’t give myself that option, because I might just follow through one of these days.

I feel exactly the same way, especially at this point in time. Unfortunately, I’ve already taken the course and am testing for my permit in 3 weeks. And then I learn how to drive. lol for a month before I go to residential.
