35 years old and I've never learned to drive. I've just been lucky enough to never had the need. I've always lived either in the centre of a city or in a place where public transport just made more sense (London and Japan). I currently live in neither of those situations, but I get by just fine on my bicycle.
My wife drives, though only rarely, and she's pushing me to get around to learning.
If you have access to one, it's worth learning how to. The longer you wait, the more difficult it is to learn. 35 is by no means too late (I'm 36 without a license), but it's also worth not waiting much more.
