Brits will spend the equivalent of one year of their adult life stuck in traffic, according to research.
A poll of 2,000 adults revealed road users end up stuck in congestion during a fifth of their journeys, for an average of nearly three hours a week.
As a result, over half (56 per cent) avoid driving altogether, while many road users take extra measures to avoid the dreaded congestion – such as leaving earlier than needed, planning a specific route, and making plans at “off peak” times.
