If you allow them a conservative mileage of 30 miles per day, that would add $12 a day to their cost of driving, which adds up to about $264 a month, plus parking. And on top of this, by riding Metro, they avoid the additional stress of driving in D.C. rush-hour traffic, which in my opinion is priceless.

Dear Dr. Gridlock:
I don't know what expense reports allow these days, but I think 40 cents per mile or more for gas and wear and tear on a car would be the minimum allowed.
