For the significant number of people that live in the area surrounding Toronto and work downtown it is sometimes the best option. Driving to work, including gas and parking, costs me only a few dollars more per day than taking the GO train and the TTC. It's also faster outside rush hour times and only slightly slower most of the time during rush hour. It might be an obvious choice in some metro areas but public transit in the GTA is not great.
