Exactly what I was thinking, reading this thread.

I was also wondering if there'd been a similar impact on new drivers. In my (albeit now very London based) experience, the kids aren't very interested in learning to drive either. However this could be a function of a fairly comprehensive public transport system combined with easy access to scheduling information (via aforementioned mobile phones) and weather that's not quite so atrocious. And it's er... effort.
