Abstract
In this study, we tried to find out both the advantages and disadvantages of relinquishing their driver's license focusing on their residential area in accordance with the survey taken by those who have relinquished their driver's license in Okayama. As showed below, several opinions have been discovered.
1, It is inconvenient for those who had been driving a car to being unable to move freely after the relinquishment. 2, It is inconvenient for those who hadn't been driving a car to being unable to have their identification card after the relinquishment. Also, 3, There are more people who have trouble not having driver's license in suburban and mountainous areas than urban area. 4, The reasons of the trouble differ depending on the area that people live. For example, people who live in urban area feel it is hard to go to hospital for such a long distance. On the other hand, people who live in suburban and mountainous area feel it is inconvenient to go shopping and being unable to use public transportation.
