70 minutes each way. Pretty much 12 hours a week sitting in a fking car. Much too much too long.

In the summer months, a lot of it is past fields and hedgerows and low hills - which is nice. In the winter its unlit roads and headlights.

In my previous role the commute was about five metres.

21 miles, 30-45 minutes each way in the East Bay region of the San Francisco Bay Area. I have to leave home before 6:30am to achieve a ~30 minute commute; commute conditions deteriorate after 6:30am. If I’m unlucky, though, it could be 60 minutes in stop-and-go traffic.

Why is this not a poll?

About 1/4 of a Security Now podcast or 1/2 of the Amp Hour or Embedded.

45-50 minutes, each way. Sucks!

I don't commute any more, but when I did each direction was a little less than ten miles and a little more than ten minutes, usually on a motorcycle.

12 minutes but I drive 35 minutes via more scenic route unless I am in a hurry (rare)
