Driving Prohibitions for Former Presidents
It’s common knowledge that sitting presidents don’t drive, relying instead on chauffeurs. Surprisingly, this restriction extends to former presidents, who can’t drive off private premises due to lifelong Secret Service protection. Here’s a fun fact: Lyndon B. Johnson notably was the last to enjoy public road driving.

Thanks to a lifetime Secret Service detail, presidents are afforded round-the-clock protection, whether on the road or elsewhere. This ensures their safety remains paramount, even in the most mundane of activities like running errands or taking a leisurely drive.
