Depends on where you live -- going through a tunnel or over a bridge adds significantly to the odds of encountering delays. Even if you live near one of the first few stops in Queens or Brooklyn you're dealing with disproportionally higher average travel time.

And in the outer boroughs, you often don't have the luxury of being able to choose from multiple lines. So all in all this means that your morning commute could last anywhere from X ('scheduled' commute time) to X + 45 minutes, occasionally even worse. And you'll probably be packed like sardines inside the cars as well, hopefully with a working AC if it's not freezing outside.
