Driving sucks ass no matter how empty the roads are.

It's funny how different people's experiences can be. I grew up in a big city and didn't learn to drive until my mid 20's when I was living somewhere a lot less crowded. Then driving allowed me to experience a feeling of physical power and freedom which I had never felt before. (I think other people might get such a feeling from running or otherwise physically exerting themselves, but I never did.) Now I'm back in a big city and so I can't actually drive to most places (there would be nowhere to park) but I still own a car - not having a car would feel like having my metaphorical wings clipped.
