Who wants to get stuck in traffic??
I'm 27, Australian, and never owned a car and hope I never have to.
I live in Melbourne, so that makes it easy. I just ride or walk everywhere. 9/10 times its quicker that way too.
I've also traveled quite a bit up the west coast of Australia and the north. Not quite as convenient, but it can be done (and you generally meet more people too!).
I could see myself living in the country or a more isolated place in the future, so I might have to buy a car then, but I'm going to try my hardest to avoid that.
