Time spent traveling or "commuting" to work is non-compensable (not payable).
This is true, even where an employee must drive a long distance.
However, as stated in the previous section, once reporting to
work (such as to the employer's shop or office, or any other place
an employer requires an employee to report), the employee must
then be paid for the time necessary to travel to a work site or
to accomplish some other mission the employer assigns.
