Default unable to drive...what would you do?

I've been unable to drive my RS for 5 days now and finding it a real bind relying on other people to cart me around....i wont do buses,cant ride a push bike...luckily i only work 3 miles from home so isnt as bad for me so can actually walk some of it.

so what/how would you guys and girls get around if you were without your car.

I either walk or I had a hire car when I had my Focus supercharged years ago, but I was without it for about 8 weeks so was desperate. Depends where else you need to go.

Why can't you drive your car?

I don't do buses either, but then none run between where I live and where I work anyway

Get a runabout and keep the RS for best. KNow what youmean about busses. I juct can't use them either. Have you seen the state of some of the people that frequent bus stops. Really isn't a great advert to get me out of my car.

The ONLY place I use public transport is London and even then I won't use the bus only the train and tube. Quicker to walk half the time in London

Likewise, get a bus, or if you think you are too special then get a taxi.

Problem solved.
