I love this. I'd even go as far as to support permanent double daylight saving time. Let's get those daylight hours in the evening where they can do some good!

- wvaske 5y agoDepending on how far north you live, it's academic at best; it's dark to and from work. We're already going to work in the dark in the morning in winter, why will it matter if its dark later?
- croes 5y agoIt's a difference if you just woke up or if you are already awake the whole day.
- standardUser 5y agoDusk is the most dangerous time to drive, and driving is the most dangerous thing most of us ever do. Standard time guarantees most rush hours, meaning most of our driving, will occur during part of dusk. Permanent daylight saving reduces the amount of rush hours that occur during dusk.
- ghaff 5y agoI've been remote since pre-pandemic. I had to drive home to the west from an appointment a few weeks ago. I forgot just how bad one of the local highways could be when the sun is low on the horizon at certain times of the year. And one of the worst spots is at a major merge. Just blinding.
