non-drivers
Those not driving
Non-drivers are people who don't drive motor vehicles—whether by choice, inability, or lack of license.
The term appears in discussions of transportation policy and urban planning: The city needs better public transit options for non-drivers.
It encompasses those who never learned, those who can't due to age or disability, and those who simply prefer not to.
