Get a motorcycle and start enjoying a quick vehicle while getting 40-50mpg.

I agree, it wouldnt work for everyone, the hardest part about a 30 mile ride is planning and finding a safe route. and obviously you couldnt do it in the winter without being nuts. But like for me, its not a big deal because I go home and ride for 3 hours usually anyway. but i dont ride to work, its ~38 miles and thats fugging far, so I agree with you there. Motocycle would be a good idea, but doesnt it really suck to ride a motorcycle in rush hour? Thats the problem
Jet has a good idea, people should spread out work schedules, but thats probably not viable int he business world we live in, schedules arent really determined by when everyone WANTS to go in... I dont think anyone wants to go out and drive thru rush hour. But i'm a programmer, there's really no reason why I couldnt work different hours, but my core company hours are 9-3, so i have to be at work those hours.
