Are there any recurring charges (or other downsides) that come with having a driver's license but not owning a car or regularly driving?

I’m mostly thinking about insurance here. I’ve been told conflicting information. I live in Florida.

I live with someone who has a driver’s license and a car, but I don’t have either. I’ve avoided getting one because I have no interest in car ownership, and I feel like if I started driving regularly I’d probably die - I have driven before but I really don’t think it’s something I’d ever get good at.

It’s undeniable that having one would be convenient though - for rare occasions like emergencies at a minimum but also other scenarios.

I know almost nothing about how this stuff works. If I get a license, am I required to acquire and pay for insurance, even if I don’t own a car or regularly drive? Or will the person I live with have to pay more for their insurance? Are there any other costs or downsides associated with it that I might not be thinking of?

Thanks.

You need to get insurance because you don’t have a license, unless you burn incence or some other nonsense, makes sense?
