Is it considered suspicious to not have a driver's license in LA ？?

When I told an American that I did not have a driver's license, he said, "Are you an illegal alien? I am a permanent resident of the US. When I applied for a job at a Japanese company and told them that I did not have a driver's license, I was repeatedly asked why I did not have a driver's license ？. I live in Tokyo, Japan, and I don't have a parking space, and I just never thought about getting a driver's license.

Just because you take the train to work doesn't mean you don't have a car ？
I don't know anyone who doesn't have a car.

Like the first thing I did when I came to LA was to get a driver's license.
There are many people who don't have their own car for financial reasons, but
I don't hear many people who don't have a driver's license.
If you are going to stay here forever, I think it would be better to get a driver's license and live in a car so you can move around more and feel more freedom.

It is up to the individual whether or not they have a car license, but for those who do, it would seem that they would be incredibly inconvenienced. This is inevitable. Because transportation here is not as developed as in Tokyo, many people inevitably choose to get a driver's license and drive a car. They think, "Oh ？ why don't you have a driver's license ？? And since many people know that illegal aliens cannot get a driver's license because they do not have a social security card that they must show to get a driver's license, the question becomes, "Are you an illegal alien?" or, in employment interviews, "Why don't you have a driver's license? ＝ They ask about the situation over and over again because they wonder if they can give the job to someone ） who is time-constrained. （ But you just have to explain to them and convince them ）

that no matter what they think, if they don't need a license, they don't have to get one, and they know that that's how people think ～ about them, so whether they drive or not, they should just keep their license. I think it is also possible. And a license is not a hindrance to have.

↑ buy a forged ID and social security card around MacArthur Park ？
or illegals are now allowed to get a license because they need a car to live without a social security card ？.

October 1, 2012
Governor Jerry ・ Brown signed a bill allowing hundreds of thousands of young illegal immigrants to obtain driver's licenses.

Oh, I didn't know, and in 2012. But not for everyone................
The driver's license measure will make illegal immigrants eligible to drive legally in California if they qualify for a new federal work permit program.
If only those who meet the following conditions: 。。。。 So, the hurdle is still high for illegal immigrants,...

People are free to drive with or without a license. It is not compulsory. ？ There were some Americans who didn't get a license because they didn't like to drive.
There are poor students who can't afford to buy a car even if they have a license ､ You can get a license even if you are illegal, so how about saying that those who don't have a license are illegal ？
I have a license, but I have witnessed many major accidents ､ and no matter how careful I am when driving I stopped driving because I was scared because there are so many insane crazy drivers out there, but it's not that inconvenient in life. There are plenty of legs to go around. Exchange agencies ､ uber ､ ask a friend to drive you out.
When I was driving, I had trouble finding a parking space when I went to an event or something, and I got into all kinds of trouble with my car.
With or without a car ､ With or without a license is up to the individual.
Each person has his or her own reasons. ､ People who say "Why don't you have a driver's license?

Yes, it is. But I don't understand people who say that OC and Torus are countryside to affirm themselves without a car.
It's pathetic that people can't find their own value without putting others down.

Before there are no cars, OC and Torrens are usually rural.

You're using the word "local" wrong ？

I mean, according to your theory, even a luxury residential area in the suburbs would be rural.

You should go to a trashy downtown and act like you are in the city.

I don't want to live in LA because I don't want to take a train bus to get around, even though it sounds like a city. I don't want to live in LA because I don't want to take a train or a bus. I don't go there.

＃ The day I drive there, the traffic jam is halfway around the world. I don't go there first though.

Where do you live?

Los Angeles, or Greater Los Angeles, seems to be about the size of the Kanto Plain.

Be careful of hate crimes, even though
if you're in a car, people walking around won't stop their cars and attack you.
