To not give DH a lift

DH normally uses his motorbike to get to work, however there is an issue with the bike so he can't ride it at the moment. His workplace is about 10-15 minutes drive away in normal traffic; mine is very close to home.

On Monday we left at 7.55am so before the worst of the traffic and I'd dropped him off and was in my work for 8.30.

This morning he was faffing so we didn't leave until 8.05am - still managed to drop him off just after 8.20, but hit rush hour traffic going to my work place and it took me over 30 minutes to get to work which was obviously frustrating and meant I had to work late to make up the time.

Tomorrow the bike is going to be fixed but the bike shop (5 minute from home in the wrong direction) is not open until 8am, and he then has to book it in etc.so I'm expecting the traffic to be even worse than today. I've told him I'm not prepared to drive him and he can drive himself. He doesn't want to do this as it is a major hassle and expensive to find a parking space near his workplace, so is now planning to get the bus. The bus is notoriously unreliable (turns up very late or not at all) so I'm starting to feel a bit guilty about not taking him in. AIBU?
