I never heard of companies doing this. The most I've heard of is some sort of shuttle bus service, and even then there's no real expectation that you'll work on the ride there. Taxi-style transport is only for exceptional circumstances (eg. you worked late), or you're on some sort of business trip.

It's a reasonably common perk for tech companies in my experience. Often with limitations on the allowed endpoints and maximum daily cost, but routine use is still expected.
