Compare car vs. Tri-met commute times

The Oregonian ran a eye-opening article Mess transit: A two-hour slog this weekend.

It showed these commute comparisons:

From Hillsboro to Tualatin
Driving = 29 minutes
Tri-met = 1 hour, 42 minutes

Sherwood to Beaverton (Nike)
Driving = 20 minutes
Tri-met = 2 hours, 2 minutes

Gresham to Oregon City
Driving = 31 minutes
Tri-met = 2 hours, 14 minutes

That looks horrible!
