    At best case 60 miles an hour… Your commute was more than 90 mins? Ugh. That’s awful.

    You weren’t clear if that was round trip or not, so possibly more than 180 mins? How did you find time to sleep!?

      Round trip was 100 miles every day. This was rural Ohio driving to Columbus so it was not to bad 2 and 4 lane roads till you hit the city most of them time. If we got a lot of snowfall it could super suck but I was from NE Ohio so most of the time it was not that much white knuckle driving. You just listen to a lot of audiobooks and podcasts or call some friends on your hour or so drive home

      In the San Francisco Bay Area, it’s not uncommon for people that work here but can’t afford to live here to have commutes of over an hour with good traffic (2+ hours with heavy traffic) each way. That’s the case in a few major metro areas in countries like the USA and Australia.

        Yeah Bay Area and LA traffic is next level. My condolences to those souls who make that drive every day
