| My first thought is that a lot of autistic people are unemployed / underemployed and can't afford cars, insurance, petrol, etc. That's true of all people NT included but if they aren't working they don't have anywhere to go with a car anyway.

| correct me if im wrong, but i think its quite common for people on the autism spectrum to be underemployed far into adulthood, as in, go well in their 20s, 30s, and older and not be financially stable yet, or for many to live with their parents late in life. |
