    Give me a break! "I drive to work daily." daily = every day

    "I drive to go to the company/office" should also be accepted.

      What is wrong with "going by car" instead of "driving"?

      "开车“ specifically means "drive a car"

      “开车” Is literally translated means "operating car" so "driving" is probably best. "Going by car" could be interpreted as someone else is driving.

        "going by car" could also mean you carpool, or have a chauffeur, or something like that. "开车" specifically refers to [the speaker] driving.

          I drive my car to work every day. It changed to a car. Now the Chinese doesn't say 我的车, but as far as I am aware here it is implied in this case so.it should be accepted.

            'I drive to work every day' is more appropriate English.

            Can anyone speak to why "I drive to the firm every day" isn't accepted?
