More Than: Parents are impatient during family car journeys

Parents may be less patient than their children when it comes to travelling by car in the summertime, new research from More Than Car Insurance has revealed.

Some ten per cent of parents claim that they begin to experience the first symptoms of irritation within ten minutes of beginning their journey, while the average parent wants to utter "are we there yet" after 24 minutes of travelling with their family on the road.

Meanwhile, the car insurance provider found that children take an average of 90 minutes to become bored or stressed in the car, which may indicate that gadgets such as mp3 players - used by 50 per cent of children travelling with their parents by car - provide a distraction during the journey.

"Children increasingly have plenty of options to keep themselves occupied and happy on long journeys," said Dowshan Humzah, More Than product director.

"It is parents and guardians who are now faced with a range of stresses from getting stuck in traffic jams to avoiding menaces on the motorway," he added, explaining that with careful planning, drivers may make long journeys more enjoyable for everyone.

More Than provides a number of insurance products, including car, pet, travel and home insurance.
