I don't really think with Floo powder, brooms, and passing the apparating 
tests that there is any need to learn to drive---
Take a look at the muggle studies.... one of the majour topics of discussion 
that Hermione brings up is that it is facinating to realise what muggles have 
had to develop to compensate for tings that wizards have magically... who 
needs a fellytone, when you cane appear in someone's fire and have a "face to 
face" conversation? ;)
