Hello everyone,

Which city or area do you live in in Scotland, and how do you find the traffic?

How long does it take to commute to work or run errands?

Is there a rush hour in your city? What times of the day would you recommend people to avoid driving if they can?

Are there any ways to avoid spending too much time in traffic in Scotland?

What is parking availability and cost like?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Priscilla

it all depends where you are and on the time of day. in general if you can , avoid rush hours between 7 and 9 in the morning and from 4 to 7 in the evening. in big cities like Edinburgh and Glasgow you better use busses or trains since parking is very expensive, if you can find one.
if living in towns outside the big cities there are no problems at all.
