A survey shows congestion is now the biggest frustration for business drivers, surpassing travel costs. 59% of business drivers are travelling more than last year, with 24% saying they are travelling much more. Fleet managers are urged to use real-time traffic data and route optimisation to reduce delays and boost productivity. Investing in dynamic travel strategies could help businesses minimise the impact of congestion on operations. Tracking time spent in traffic can provide insights to better manage fleet operations and reduce inefficiencies.

Why it matters for your car

Understanding and addressing congestion can improve driver satisfaction and overall business efficiency.

If maintenance uncovers an engine warning light, AutoScan for Windows can read and clear standard fault codes through a compatible ELM327 adapter and show live data and freeze frame information.
