[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love how people say "leave before 8" as if there is control if your school starts at 8:45 and there is no before care. [/quote]

If it takes you an hour to go two miles like PP insists then you have to leave before 8 if school starts at 845.[/quote]

I'm not the PP who mentioned the hour, but I don't totally disagree with her. There are some parts of the city where traffic congestion is a bigger problem than others, and certain intersections that should be avoided at all costs. I had lived in Columbia Heights for maybe 48 hours before I learned that if you're driving, you want to avoid the intersection at 14th and Columbia if at all possible. We ruled out MV, Lee and ITS because taking NY Ave or Rhode Island from there to Dupont (where I work at a job that starts at 9 on the nose) was not viable.

My original point was that when you're considering commute, actual distance (2.5 miles) is not as relevant as "travel time" because there are some sections of mid-city that are a disaster during morning and evening rush hour.[/quote]
