I have had this issue as well and here is a temporary solution.

First, open VirtualBox and check the network settings on the boot2docker VM to see what the host only adapter is named. In my case, it's vboxnet1; for you, it may be vboxnet0.

Then, apply this command:

sudo route -nv add -net 192.168.59 -interface vboxnet1

Now you should be able to run Docker commands.

See this issue for more information.

I am noticing over time that a common denominator in this problem is Cisco anyconnect (me included), for what it's worth.
