Use mapquest to get directions from your home address to your work address, and post your results in the poll.

For the sake of the poll, the answers will be based on driving the exact speed limit, without any traffic problems. But you can reply in the thread to give us how long it really takes you (longer because of traffic congestion, or quicker because you drive like a maniac).

"Total Est. Time: 51 minutes Total Est. Distance: 44.41 miles"

Takes me 35-45 min on average to get there. 45-60 coming back home, due to extra traffic.

Total Est. Time: 13 minutes Total Est. Distance: 7.46 miles

Real world,between 10 and 20 mins.

I did it once at night in about 7 mins.

My old address and my current one it takes about the same time,
Glad I did not move a long ways from work,with gas prices going up. :(

actually really thanks to their unlimited metrocard... it costs much less than owning a car.

Doing California rolls through the three stop signs, about one minute 30 seconds. Complete disregard while flooring it, (downhill) fast.

Upstate to SoHo, combo Red & Tan/MTA. Really takes a miserable while.
