If you are a W2 employee you can not deduct expenses. Even for self employment you can't deduct those personal expenses.

No, personal expenses for commuting are not deductible for W-2 employees for tax purposes.

Please see this article for more details on commuting expenses and this article for travel expenses as it relates to employees.
