Traffic data reveals the heavy financial toll motorists face in gridlocked U.S cities as jams lead to wasted gas and little distance covered.
Drivers in the US are spending up to 26 per cent of their annual fuel bill on traffic jams, according to analysis that lays bare the financial toll of congested cities.The latest available data shows that motorists continue to battle congestion despite hopes that remote working during the Covid pandemic heralded a new era of clutter-free city roads.The issue is not just a matter of lost time, but also of increased expenses.
Covid lockdowns, and the subsequent adoption of flexible or remote working arrangements across the U.S., arguably should have led to an unclogging of major cities' streets during traditional commuting hours. However, traffic woes in the U.S. appear to have increased from pre-pandemic levels.According to tomtom, New York's congestion level – being the average vehicle time lost to traffic - rose to 43 percent in 2023 from 37 percent in 2019.
