Ride a bicycle, then.
If it’s true that you have to calculate a 1h buffer (+delays from traffic) any time you drive somewhere, then you’re faster on a bicycle for all distances shorter than 20 miles.
Fucking lol there it is. I was talking specifically about my commute to work, which would be 100-120km (depending on the route) round-trip, that would be cycling 500-600km a week, and my work is already pretty demanding physically, I don’t sit at a desk and do fuck-all all day. Also this is by highways when bicycles aren’t permitted, the ride would be even longer. I bring with myself my work backpack with some tools, protection equipment, lunch… not huge but not small or light by any means.
Riding a bicycle is not an option for me, I’ve considered a motorbike but decided it’s too dangerous to ride that much, which is another con for bikes. I know that the danger of riding a bike is mostly due to share the road with cars, trucks, vans… not because of the bikes themselves but the danger is mostly for the rider and I don’t wanna put myself at that risk
Edit: also the parking time is only when I come back home, there’s plenty of parking space at my job
