One person's dreadful attitude is another person's realism
Are there any car share type schemes in operation where you live? Could be a handy backup for when you do really need to drive somewhere.
That depends on your home and workplace locations. Many people use the bus to get to work on a daily basis without a problem.Unfortunately, if you are employed on Teesside or have a reason to travel on a regular basis with timelines it just about impossible to live without a car sadly.
The public transport options are woeful.

Very few use public transport where I work. The few that do are repeatedly late and are stuck waiting for connections.That depends on your home and workplace locations. Many people use the bus to get to work on a daily basis without a problem.
If you live around Teesside or North Yorkshire it's almost impossibleThinking of ditching the car early next year when I don’t need one for work.
There will no doubt be times throughout the year I will need to hire a car to get to difficult to access locations - but on a climate/cost basis it feels like it will work.
Just wondering if anyone else has done this?

Yes of course. I didn't drive until I was in my 30's, retired now but a lot of my working life was in Teesside. If you work in the town centres you're usually near a pretty quick bus service. I used to be able to get the bus into the office in Yarm, now it's two buses to do the same route. My sister in law has always used the bus to get to work, she lives in Boro and works in StocktonIn the Teesside area?
Ive thought about this too and wondered if it made economic sense to hire one when needed or even a longer term hire through winterThat’s helpful. My thinking is I get rid in April and see how it goes.
I do see winter being a tricky period but locally, at least, it won’t be an issue.
Worse case - we try and it doesn’t work for us.
