I think you have to live in an area where it's difficult/near impossible to get to places without a car to hyperfocus on learning to drive and attain a car. A lot of US cities/suburbs and rural towns literally have streets where walking is not allowed or not made for walking/bikes. The small town my parents live in is considered upper middle class, yet the nearest grocery store and gas station are about a mile away with no public transport nor any easy walking paths to get to them. Even trying to get to a bus stop, there are park-n-ride stations next to one of the exits off the interstate highway. It'll be a hell of a walk for most people, you more or less need a car to take the bus.
As a teen, the only way to not rely on your parents or other people to give you rides was to get a driver's license and have a car. So many of us teens in the 2000s were willing to drive old beatup cars because that was better than having no car.

Once you get used to relying on it, it's easy to forget how dangerous a car is and that one is operating a super heavy, super fast machine.
