Commuting Costs

What is the Cost of Your Commute?

The cost of commuting alone in your personal vehicle may be higher than you think.

Traffic congestion comes at a high cost to commuters in terms of fuel consumption, time lost and diminished quality of life. With the majority of us commuting to work or school alone in our personal vehicles, that expense continues to climb—and many of us don’t realize the true cost.

Enter your commute and vehicle information into the calculator below to learn your monthly commuting cost.

Consider the alternatives.
