Q: A new study found that people in big cities waste almost 4 days a year doing this?

A: looking for Parking

Researchers in England found that people in London spend an average of eight minutes every time they have to search for a parking spot . . . which works out to almost four days a year.

 

Even in smaller cities, they found it takes an average of five minutes to find street parking, which isn’t much better.

44% of people say finding a spot is a stressful experience.  Only 20% say they don’t get stressed out at all.

48% find it annoying that there just aren’t enough spots available.  And 59% are frustrated by people who park like jerks and take up two spots.
