> In Seattle for instance you can beat a driver to the airport every time during traffic Sea-Tac is 22 minutes from my house by car, during the worst traffic it is usually around 35 mins (I don't have to drive through downtown), and 1 hour 18 minutes by bus and lightrail. I live about 4 miles as the crow flies from the SODO light rail station. > Mass transit is the solution. This is only a solution for a large, dense urban environment, and really only a partial solution at that.
