I had a summer internship in the suburbs of boston and drove out from the city every day in the early 2010s. Practically door to door traffic, stressful unprotected left turns, masshole drivers abound, the works.
After that summer I swore off car commuting. I ended up with the same commute after graduating but by public transit. Since transit to the suburbs is awful, it was a 3 seat ride - train to the commuter rail station, commuter rail to the suburbs, then bus to the workplace, about 1-1.5 hr each way.
After quitting that job for a job in the city (with about 20-30 min commute by train each day) i swore off the suburbs altogether. Life is too short for that nonsense.
