W: Good morning, Paul!
M: Hi, good morning! You are so early today. W: Yes, traffic wasn't much today. M: Do you drive to work?
W: No. I take public transportation. It's safer.
M: You are right! But I usually get up a little late. That gives me no other option but to travel by motorcycle.
W: Well, both have advantages and disadvantages.
