I would say that excludes them from my future purchases, but honestly, I'm hoping never to buy a car again. Public transit and bicycling are far cheaper, less polluting, and more sustainable (especially in population centers). Maybe I'll spend a little of the money I save on an occasional day rental if needed.

If you want to drive occationally through the city securely i suggest going to a critical mass if you have one in your city but its only once a month so you would need to plan ahead
