>>31358558>>31358459The license thin is basically a requirement to be hired in some places in the USA. There's a LOT more space between just houses in this country than there is between businesses in the UK.
You can easily drive across the UK within a week or so. A week of driving in the US won't get you across the country unless you drive in teams and don't stop for any reason at all.
That said you can function in the US without a license but it's difficult and usually requires the help of someone who can drive (or a ton of Amazon free shipping) for basics like Groceries and clothing.
