I live in a large city and I'm 22 and I've never even bothered to learn how to drive because I don't need to, I can get anywhere I need to with human-powered wheels or public transit. Not having to pay for gas, insurance, and maintenance has been awesome, and it's only very rarely that I think "man I wish I had a car."
I don't know how similar of a situation you're in but if I were you I'd probably just get a bike or a scooter and say fuck it, I'll get around to driving later. If you're living in a small town this might not be the best option though. Maybe you should stop smoking for a while and get a car.
