Comment on Buses for Tech Workers in San Francisco Will Pay Feeparent

See I live on the Gold Coast, Queensland, and commute ~70km to Brisbane for work. So do tens of thousands here, so I find it really fascinating to see similar situations with vastly different consequences due to culture and other variables.

One of the things to note is that there is an incredible amount of traffic congestion during commute times on the freeway from SF to Mountain View and within San Francisco itself. We could double the capacity of our freeway system and they'd still be slow. So it can take well over an hour on the freeway each way plus an extra 20+ minutes just driving through SF to drop people off if they are any more than a couple miles from the nearest freeway exit.
