30-day writing challenge - Your commute to and from work. (12/30)
Every day I go to work by car. I could go by bus, but I would leave home much earlier and I would arrive much later. Besides, I have to carry a bunch of books and notebooks (because I'm a teacher) and it's heavy.
I have to get on the highway and on my path I can see a lot of companies. When I'm going to work in the morning the highway is always packed of cars and trucks, so I can't leave home in the nick of time otherwise I'll be late. It takes about 15 minutes from my house to work. I think it's very close and I it's good. I'd like to have someone to go with me to split the expenses.

Excellent use of modal verbs! I also appreciate the richness of your vocabulary, especially your use of idioms. Note (1): I think you are referring to the books and notebooks; therefore, you need the plural pronoun and verb. Note (2): You clearly understand this idiom, and I applaud your effort to apply it here; I would just mention that, in my experience, in the nick of time is used more frequently in reference to arrival, rather than departure.
