How long does it take you to get from home to work/school (door-to-door)?

[Ultima]

It used to take me close to an hour and a half on the bus, but now door-to-door is only 30-45 mins between home and school for me, and the actual drive is 20-30 mins (the rest of the time parking and walking). It's 25km or about 16 miles.

15 seconds by walking.................................. I work from home...........................

 

[MomAndSkoorbaby]

When I do work, it will be 2.25 hours from door to door.

Okay this thread needs WAY more responses. THe poll's kinda meaningless with 1/2 responses per option. Comeon, I spent 5 mins creating that poll!

It takes anywhere from 30 seconds to 6 hours for me to get to work. I never know until I get up in the morning and check my email where I am going or what I will be doing. It might be a job that takes 30 minutes or two weeks.

3.5-4.5 hours by car for me to get from home to school depending upon traffic and police coverage. Of course, 90% of the time I'm at the dorms on campus instead of at home, and my farthest class is about a two minute walk from my dorm.

about 35-45 minutes depending on the *tube* in London.......

 

[Gnurb]

about an hour commute for me =/

ZIP - I don't work/go to school, thank you very much.

 

[Spudd]

1 hour and 45 in the morning to get to class, and 2 hours to get home, every day of the damn week. My classes go from 8 am to 7 pm most of the week too...bleck.

 

[Paulson]

It's about a 5 min drive to get to school...

 

[Supermercado]

From the time it takes me to walk out my front door and halfway across campus.... about 12 minutes.

 

[PsychoAndy]

Hmmm. About 15 minutes. I try and scale 7 miles in rush hour traffic in a time frame where 1 red light could screw me over, so I try to time my approach to hit every green light or a light cycle that's about to turn green.

Meh, from the travel times most of you are posting you guys have no right to b!tch about traffic. A car is still the fastest way (in NA cities) except in maybe NYC

I remember when going to work in the summer would take 2 hours to some locations, and that included a lot of walking too because the bus stop is like half a mile away. It was even worse during christmas breaks, having to walk over highway overpasses, and all that wind...
I think someone needs to invent a better form of public transit for these areas because buses suck.

[minendo]
