Representatives of generation Z are massively refusing to get a driver's license, preferring taxis and public transport. This was reported on June 28 by the Daily Mail (DM) newspaper with reference to a study by Hive Energy.

"Half of the respondents aged 20 to 30 say they do not plan to ever learn to drive, and the same number believe they can live happily without a car," the publication says.

It is noted that almost one in three respondents admitted that they are afraid to get behind the wheel, and a quarter are scared off by high fuel prices. More than half of the study participants noted that owning a car in the city is losing its meaning due to the developed public transport, bicycles and taxi ordering applications. In addition, almost 80% of respondents said they would prefer to spend money on a vacation.

On February 26, Reuters reported that the number of unemployed and unemployed young people has almost reached 1 million in the UK. It was noted that the NEET indicator (youth who do not work or study) makes it possible to more accurately track problems in the labor market than other statistics and surveys.
