Lets start with the basics. To-and-from work, which is likely the #1 use of people's gasoline.
- FeepingCreature 5y agoThis creates an interesting work model: drive to work via company bus in the morning, drive home via company bus in the evening, just leave your laptop on the bus. Travel time counts as work time. Same route twice a day, so everybody works the same length.

- dragontamer 5y agoMy high-school only had 2000 students, and elementary/middle school had only a fraction of that. Surely a lot of us work on campuses / office complexes that have more than 2000 office workers? If we have bus systems that can effectively serve ~500 person elementary schools or ~300 person elementary schools, surely we can serve a 5000-person office complex with some kind of mass-transit option?
