Aside from all the "ride a bike" comments it looks like everyone is saying the same thing, your commute sucks. Can you chart out another route perhaps one that is longer but takes you down a less congested side street? How about getting to work earlier before traffic builds up? You could be the new, I made a fresh pot of coffee guy instead of the I only get 20mpgs guy. Do you feel comfertable riding a bike or a scooter? Perhaps join a gym that's closer to work or start eating breakfast at a restaurant within walking distance... Maybe there's a driving range on your way to work you can stop at to improve your swing... There has to be something...
