You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

M$We just got approved for a metro rail extension (this is DC metro, the new line is called the Silver line), in 5 years or so I'll have a metro station less than two miles away, the closest one today is at least half an hour away.

M$I moved a few years ago. When I was at my last residence, I would drive my car to the nearest park & ride place (5 minutes away), and take the bus from there to work. It took significantly longer to get to and from work each day, but it was worth it because
1) it was SO much cheaper. About $20/month for unlimited bus rides, as opposed to $100/month for parking at the garage nearest work. Not to mention how much I saved in gas.
2) I had an extra hour or more each day to read my books, which I always enjoyed. Now it's more like I can read on my lunch break and that's about it.
If there was a bus stop anywhere near where I live now, I would probably take the bus to/from again.

I am trying to convince the wife to get a scooter as motorbikes and scooters do not get hung up in traffic as cars do. That is a great link @philipy! Chickens, yes, very much so!
You would save a consider amount of time if you took your car. You are taking 45 minutes to travel 13 miles.
Traffic in big cities like London is not fast.
According to this data, the average speed achieved across London is only 16.9mph. But during rush hour in central London it is only 10mph.

As this article amusingly observes, that means London cars move no faster than chickens! :)

to drive that distance at peak time in the city of London through zones 3, 2 and to the border of zone one can take 45 minutes on a good day. The cost of a car and the frustration of the traffic make public transit a good thing. I can sit on the train and read the paper and relax as I travel.
