> I doubt a 2 mile commute could take 45 minutes. It should take... 12 minutes. Let's call it 15. We can look this up. For instance, going from somewhere random in Tribeca to a random bar 2 miles away is a 42 minute walk or a 37-42 minute bus ride (with 1 change, with busses running every 15 minutes). This is a good example of a failure mode if the bus doesn't go exactly where you want it to. https://www.google.com/maps/dir/''/40.7237156,-73.9777888/@40.7351296,-74.0090531,14z/data=!4m9!4m8!1m3!2m2!1d-74.0051267!2d40.7186418!1m0!2m1!5e0!3e3 https://www.google.com/maps/dir/''/40.7237156,-73.9777888/@4... What if you do a perfect straight line single bus for 2 miles from Tribeca it's still 24 minutes, with busses every 15 minutes, so between 24-39 minutes. https://www.google.com/maps/dir/''/40.7437799,-73.9917792/@40.7312264,-74.0066405,15z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m9!4m8!1m3!2m2!1d-74.0051267!2d40.7186418!1m0!2m1!5e0!3e3 https://www.google.com/maps/dir/''/40.7437799,-73.9917792/@4... The subway option is much faster (original comment is comparing busses to subways)
