Based on TomTom statistics, driving ten kilometres took an average of 29 minutes and 30 seconds last year.

The timing was one minute longer than the average for 2022.

If drivers make this 10-kilometer route twice a day, they will waste 158 hours annually on average.

Cork and Limerick were placed 212th and 202nd, respectively.

Dublin did not rate as highly as other major cities like Toronto (Canada), Milan (Italy), Bengaluru (India), and Brussels (Belgium), even if London was ranked first.

New York ranked twenty-first, with an average time of twenty-four minutes and fifty seconds.

387 cities from 55 nations on six continents were included in the investigation.

Cities all over the world are ranked according to the average journey time, fuel prices, and CO2 emissions by the TomTom Traffic Index.

Conor Faughnan, CEO of the Royal Irish Automobile Club, stated that the underfunding of public transit is the cause of Dublin's traffic issues.

"Nobody volunteers, as a car driver, to sit in congestion like this," Mr. Faughnan stated on Newstalk. If there are options, they take use of them. Both of our buses and Luas trams are filled."
