And yet, my experience with most Southern Californians is that while they give distances in time they are almost always horribly wrong about how much time it will take.
I remember a comic I saw on TV when I was a kid who had a joke about how in LA everything is "about 20 minutes away" from wherever you happen to be. I didn't really get it until I began interacting with a lot of people frmo there. That's an exaggeration but sometimes not by much. I'm sure plenty of people really do know the accurate times but a lot don't.
