Transcribe →Commutes That Drain You | Dover News
4d ago00:01:43Tap to summarizeA new study reveals which commutes are turning drivers into burnout zombies—surveying 3,000 people, it found that long, congested, and unpredictable trips are mentally draining before you even clock in.

Smyrna to Dover (144) and Hockessin to Wilmington (148) follow, plagued by rush hour and construction. Nationally, Palmdale to LA tops the list, with NYC, SF, and Miami also in the stress zone. Meanwhile, a new $2M warehouse near Middletown could worsen traffic in an already overwhelmed area. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
