If I have to drive on a somewhat daily basis to complete daily site inspections (inter or intrastate), is anything deductible?

I drive from Location A to Location B on day one.
On day two, I drive from Location A, to Location C, to Location D, and then back to Location A.
Are any trips like this deductible?

No, if you are a W-2 employee.

If you are self-employed, yes.

If you are a W-2 employee, no.

Hi! So, even if I have to travel from job site to job site, there is no way for me to deduct or take advantage of the fact that I am traveling, and am away from both my office and residence? Thank you!
