New Yorkers spent 74 hours of their lives in traffic jams in 2014.

America’s drivers wasted 6.9 billion hours stuck in traffic in 2014, according to a study released today by the Texas A&M Transportation Institute(TTI) and INRIX. That’s 42 hours a year per rush-hour commuter on average.

If you worked for 35 years and this remained constant, you’d be spending more than 61 days stuck behind the wheel.
