SMART COMMUTERS: Compared to the typical Simi Valley resident’s, Gina Adams’ 10-minute commute to her job at City Hall is a breeze. And she makes it even easier by ride-sharing with a friend. “I figured, ‘Why not?’ She lives right around the corner,” Adams said. . . .

For other ways to beat the street, try Street Smart (B1).
