In interviews after the song came out, Bassett that he received a lot of public scrutiny from fans as many believed it was about him.

In old videos, which resurfaced after “Drivers License” was released, Rodrigo said that her first time driving was with Bassett.

Fans became convinced that the pair grew close while filming the High School Musical series but were unable to date, Rodrigo was 15 at the time while Bassett was 18.

Neither Rodrigo nor Bassett confirmed that “Drivers License” is about them, or that they were a romantic item in the first place.

“You’re probably with that blonde girl / Who always made me doubt / She’s so much older than me,” Rodrigo sings on the track.
