During my morning commute I sit in traffic in the regular (non carpool lane) for about 5-10 minutes, whereas the carpool lane passes right by with no traffic. I am only on this stretch for about a mile. So imagine about 5-10 minutes/mile saved as an example.

It really depends on the area though. I am referring to the 85/101 merge near all the Google exits.

I've never stepped foot on the West coast, but I found this sentence really amusing! I guess I never realized the extent to which GAFA was embedded in the landscape.

(Nevermind this East-coast pleb. Carry on!)
