Europe’s most gridlocked cities have been revealed, with some motorists losing nearly a week of their lives each year sitting in traffic.
Car insurance experts from Quotezone.co.uk have analysed congestion data and found commuters in Dublin, Bucharest and Istanbul have lost the most time to rush hour traffic.
Dublin commuters face the most traffic in Europe, as they lose a total of 158 hours (6.5 days) due to congestion each year.
On average, it takes motorists nearly 30 minutes to travel a distance of just 10km in the city.
Drivers in Bucharest and London are also experiencing high levels of traffic, both losing over six days per year due to the delays.
Despite attempts to help congestion in London with enforced congestion charges for motorists, it still ranks high for time lost per year at rush hour.
The fourth most congested city in Europe is Milan, where drivers are spending around 137 hours per year in rush hour jams.
Also making the top ten most gridlocked cities are Paris, Athens, Bordeaux, Rome, Wroclaw and Brussels.
