Well part of it is that my distance is actually closer to 10km, whereas yours is only 6.6km. It sucks that highways entrench the need for cars, but they’re also extremely fast when the roads are clear. I can drive 70Mi/h (~115km/h) almost the entire way from my apartment to my job. So the driving time is super short in comparison to anything else.

Ah yes of course that makes sense if 10 of those 11min are at highway speeds. Mine is smaller roads, first highway is maybe 15min drive away and speed limit is anyway 100km/h between 07:00/19:00.
