Thanks for calling me silly. It may not be efficient, but I tell you what. If it weren't for the ability to drive by car, public transport would more then double my daily commute. Driving by bike in a very rainy environment would about tripple my commute. I really love having my own home with a garden and can't stand the idea of living in these cramped loud dirty inner city dwellings. And driving has one real great upside for me: It takes care of my mental state, as I really hate these idiots inside these cramped busses/tube-cars, that smell like chemical shit (having forgot to shower and doing deodorant en masse) or listening to their music over shitty headphones, so that everybody get's noise polluted. Not having run amok during my public transport commutes over the last 5 years (before I switched back to driving 'cause of a new job) was really sometimes hard. People are obnoxious, loud, smelly and egomaniac. Having to endure public transport showed me, how bad humanity really is. At least here in Hamburg, Germany. So tl;dr: Being an ambivert i really need the quite time of my private car commute to function well in this society.
