StephenR, your first dives can be really frustrating. You're doing a lot of things that are, at first, very unnatural. Just breathing with your head underwater gets a lot of people. I know it got me at first.
The classes aren't cheap, but you're paying for what is a luxury in all cases (maybe a career option for a few, but I think there's specialized courses for those seeking to be commercial divers, right?) whereas automobiles tend to be seen as a necessity in most places I've lived. There's a lot of competition for driving, but diving is more specialized, and thus more expensive.
