I’m confused about whether increasing the average commute time could actually help. That doesn't seem right to me, but I can't recall why.

I’m leaning towards option D about flexible times. It seems like a practical solution, but I’m not confident if it directly addresses the average commute issue.

This question reminds me of a practice problem we did on commute times. I feel like changing routes could help, but it might not guarantee a shorter time.

I think I remember something about reducing average commute times by leaving earlier, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the best option here.
