Who has the longest commutte to or from work?

Question

Who spends the most time in traffic, where from and where to, and what is your purpose of travel. Just curious to see where the worst commute is.....

Answer 1

20 miles one way

Answer 2

From Murfreesboro Tennessee to Nashville Tennessee, the commute is usually anywhere from 45 minutes to 1 & 1/2 hours.

Answer 3

I know somebody who drives from the High Desert (victorville, CA) to Los Angeles, CA for work everyday...they leave at 3am to avoid traffic and it is approx. a 2 1/2 hr drive.  If they left at 6:30am it would take almost 4 hours in traffic.

That is crazy to me....I've also heard that people driving in D.C. have terrible traffic.

Answer 4

37 miles each way now - and it takes about an hour, but I used to travel about 70 miles and it took about 3 hours (the customer moved, and I had to work at the new location for a while).  Having to drive on the world's longest parking lot, the Long Island Expressway, doesn't help.  The only reason my current commute takes as little time as it does is because I leave my house at 9 AM.  (When I was in Lincoln, NE, I worked clear on the other side of town - about 10 minutes in heavy traffic - and people thought I was crazy for working so far away.)

Answer 5

I live about 30 min west of Houston, TX. My commute to work on average is nearly 2 hours long, and that's IF there is no bumper to bumper traffic on the two-way road that services the only entrance/exit. My way home is just as long in time.
