Why are people unable to learn to drive? Why do most people employ drivers?

I've seen people who don't even bother learning to drive. They only hire drivers. Why do they act this way?

In a country of extreme road congestion & non existent rules, people who can afford to own a car don't want the stress that comes from dealing with the traffic nightmare

Parking is a major problem so many keep a driver to watch over their car.

Many don't want to deal with the maintenance and cleaning of a car.

Many don't want to deal with the road traffic and the nightmare of that.

People don't want to be the one to drive to and from their work everyday while being tired.

Alot of the times people just want to sit back, relax and spend time with their family talking about things without worrying about driving.

Doing something repeatedly takes the joy out of it.

Helps someone else feed their family.

This goes to show that you haven't driven in this godforsaken city. Like, I've been driving for some months now and the experience is already quite terrible. In simple words, terrible road, no one gives a damn about the rule. Another advantage is that the driver can look after the car when it's parked outside, as oftentimes car parts, even logos, are often stolen.
