How Long We Can Be in the Car with Family Before Going Nuts?

If you're not a fan of family road trips, you're not alone.

If you’re not a fan of family road trips, you’re not alone. For some, it might be better to break up drive time into multiple days. A new poll found we can only be in the car with our family for 3 hours and 46 minutes before they drive us nuts. When we’re with our friends we can go for a little bit longer but, not much at 4 hours and 23 minutes. Overall, most folks agree that the “perfect” road trip would last four and a half days, take them through four different states, while hitting five major landmarks. California was voted the best state for these types of vacations, followed by Arizona and Alabama.
