One of the ways in which car-commuter suburbs make life extra hellish on teens, I think, is making it that much harder to find jobs, volunteer situations, or social clubs that are outside the catch-basin of their own school without a car to get farther away with. Then being carless among kids who have their own is not just a marker of being an outsider, but also one more way of feeling stuck or trapped.
