Many of the Metro rides in DC are $5 or more. Some people are saying that it's cheaper to drive to work and pay for parking -- something that is also jamming the roads. One study found that drive times are 20% longer than before COVID -- and that's despite the fact that many are working from home.

- Schiendelman 3y agoPeople are afraid to be an early victim of the next pandemic - so lots of people who were on transit before covid are driving today. In Seattle I think we have more car commuters to downtown now than we did in 2019 with far fewer in the office - because in 2019 less than half of downtown workers drove alone.
