@J1ODYA no argument from me haha
As for @stigeye I dot agree with the first line of you comment I can go 2 roads home. 1 the direct one which is 6 miles and I get 29.5 mpg and the other non stop one with is 12 miles and get 32 mpg so the direct route which is the one I use costs me £20 a week and the other which costs about £36 ish a week so over a year is £752 which can pay for insurance and tax for the year and still have some left.
That's what I am getting at that they would do the longer route because they are constantly moving and it takes the same time but it would cost more a year.
Don't get me wrong once Aberdeen finally gets the bypass finished i will get the same mpg as the faster route.
On a clear day I can get door to door in 8 mins and the traffic for me getting 2 and from work is 20-25 mins.
I don't know how bad traffic is in other parts of the country but for me I can't justify the extra cost for no real world gain. I'm not gaining time at home all I would do is put extra miles on the car and waste money on fuel which is what I was getting at in my first post.
