Americans who associate age 16 with vehicular freedom may be surprised to hear of the hoops Dutch youngsters jump through—or don't bother jumping through—the get their license. When I met Amber, Hilde and Elle two years ago all three were well into their 20's, but only one could drive. Now I head back to Rotterdam, Holland to check up on their progress.
well i'm 18 i got my license payed most of it myself and i got a car i paid for myself. it isn't really that exclusive as it shows in the video, half of all my friends got their license not all of them have cars though.
but i still use the bike more then i use the car. gas costs alot. and most places i want to go to are nearby like 15 min to get there on bike so there is no need for the car

Wow... that's enlightening. The things we take for granted.... It only cost me $350 USD to get my license... including classes. And if you wait till you're 18 in the US (or at least most states) you don't need to take courses... just a written test, and a road test. First Comment!
