It's really sad that Las Vegas doesn't have a sufficient public transit system. But it's equally sad if bumper to bumper traffic is the primary reason you drive a Tesla. It might be cheaper to move closer to work so you can walk or ride your bicycle. And if the traffic is really that aggravating that you would rather someone else drive you, then maybe you should try to find a job in a more commuter friendly place.
Well, AP isn't the main reason I have a Tesla, but it sure was a nice enticement. I agree, it'd all be better if we all lived near where we worked, though as a practical matter, "live near work" (the outer suburbs) or "shift careers" and work near home, are both distasteful to me.
As it is, I complain, but my commute isn't bad compared to most in the DC area; most of it is against traffic. I do cycle 1-2 days/week and when driving, can usually wait and depart after rush hour if it's bad. But my MS with AP make my commuting decisions much easier-- it's no longer a big deal to commute home in mid-rush hour.
