How long was your labor? Do I have enough time to get to the hospital?

I'm starting to stress out about how far away I am from the hosptial. I live an hour and 15 minutes aways from the hospital and I work 15 minutes away from the hospital. I'm curious, how long was everyone's labor? From the very first sign of labor to delivery? I'm a FTM and I realize that labor is quite long but I'm scared I'll be that one person who will start labor and deliver a baby within an hour. I do not want to deliver a baby in a car. On one hand my doctor says that it's extremely unlikely that my labor will be under two hours but on the other hand he tells me I should stay close by when my due date approaches. Am I worrying for no reason?
